Common Items That Movers Won’t Take

As a moving company, our expert Jacksonville Movers have handled many types of belongings. There are, however, some items that we simply won’t move for you.

Hazardous Materials

This refers to anything that could explode or cause harm. Some items, like weapons or car batteries, might come immediately to mind, but others might not come to mind:

• Hair spray
• Fingernail polish
• Fireworks
• Pool chemicals
• Cleaning solutions
• Bleach
• Charcoal briquettes

These items have the potential for causing damage to your belongings while in the truck and could also lead to harm for those people who are around the truck.

Perishable Items

You wouldn’t your favorite plants along with you on a cross-country vacation. Just imagine the results if you were to load them into a dark truck. Moving companies generally don’t move plants or the following items:

• Frozen foods
• Open packages of food
• Pets

You might transport these items with you and your family. Pets often require special arrangements for their comfort and safety.

Items of Value

Jacksonville Movers strive to treat your belongings as they would their own. However, there is always the potential for some losses or damages. Anything that has particular sentimental value and those things with financial value should not be given to movers. These items might include:

• Heirloom jewelry
• Photo albums
• Financial documents
• Genuine fur
• Antiques

Use your best judgment when it comes to packing up these items. Our movers can give you some suggestions about how to best move your valuables.

This list isn’t comprehensive. When you are ready to move, consult with knowledgeable Jacksonville Movers about what to put on the truck and what to take along with you.
