Title: Figuring out what movers won’t move 


1
Figuring out what movers wont move 
2
  • Plants 
  • One of the things that long distance movers wont
    move is plants.
  • It is illegal to transport plants more than 150
    miles without a special license.
  • This is because pests, such as the emerald ash
    borer or other predators, can hitch a ride on
    your house plant and allow those pests to be
    introduced into a new area.

3
  • Hazardous materials
  • You may not stop to consider them as hazardous,
    but paint, aerosol cans, paint thinner,
    batteries, fire extinguishers and other such
    items.
  • Most movers, including Red Ball, will give you a
    list of the hazardous materials that movers wont
    move.
  • However, a good rule of thumb is that if you
    cant ship it or dispose of it in your regular
    trash collection, your movers probably wont be
    able to move it.

4
  • Perishable food 
  • It just makes sense movers wont move anything
    that will spoil, such as perishable food, frozen
    food or open containers.
  • Its best to consume what you can before the move
    and/or move your frozen food in a cooler yourself.

5
  • Explosives 
  • Of course! Its a given that movers wont move
    ammunition, black powder, primers, propellants,
    or even souvenir explosives you may have
    collected. 

6
  • Pets 
  • Do we really have to say this? Take your pet in
    the car or the plane with you.
  • Pets are just another of the things movers wont
    move.

7
  • Flammable items
  • These are also hazardous materials, so use up or
    discard appropriately any kerosene, charcoal,
    lighter fluid, paint remover and the like before
    the move.

8
  • Valuables. 
  • Valuables, such as cash, important documents,
    jewelry and stock certificates have no place in a
    moving van.
  • While these items arent technically among the
    things movers wont move, it just doesnt make
    sense to risk losing them amid your other
    possessions during the move.

9
  • Power Equipment with Fuel 
  • The list of things movers wont move also
    includes power equipment with fuel in the tank.
  • This includes motorcycles, lawn mowers, weed
    eaters, and so forth.
  • Before movers will move these items, you must
    drain the fuel or run the item until the fuel
    reserve is completely empty.
