Preparing
for the Movers
What Stays, What Goes
Before moving day arrives, there are a few things you should take care of in
preparation of the arrival of our crew. Not everything in your home can be
shipped in our vans.
Moving provides a great opportunity to sort through your belongings and
leave behind the items you will never use again. This helps with shipment
size and the amount you’ll have to sort through in your new home.
Items you must leave behind or take with you (we cannot ship them on our
vans):
|
• Aerosol Cans |
• Frozen Foods |
|
• Ammunition |
• Canned
Carbonated Drinks |
|
• Perishable Food |
• Explosives |
|
• Propane Gas
Tanks |
• Corrosives |
|
• Flammables |
• Paint/Thinners |
|
• Bleach |
• Solvents |

Movers cannot accept liability for the following items; you should arrange
to transport these items by other means:

packers arrive:
