Are there certain items that should not be packed into boxes, loaded onto the truck or placed into storage?

Yes. These items are generally not safe to transport along with your household goods. You can expect the movers not to pack or load these items. We ask that, if you are packing your own cartons, that you refrain from packing the following items. • Aerosol cans and any items with contents under pressure. • Propane tanks full or empty. • Matches • Batteries • Gasoline and containers. • Oils of any kind including cooking and engine oils • Chemicals such as paint thinners, turpentine, bleach, paint brush cleaners, etc. • Fire Extinguishers • Fireworks • Ammunition • Any other liquids that can leak and cause damage to your personal possessions. We ask that you consider moving these items yourself on local moves and giving these items away to friends, family or neighbors on more long distance moves.
