Not everything in your home can conveniently fit into a medium-sized box. Packing and moving giant aquariums, life-sized cardboard cutouts, chandeliers, and many other items can be a challenge. Fortunately, nothing is impossible for professionals like us. Our Team Around Town Movers, one of the top movers in our area, talks about four peculiar possessions and explains how to move them:
Pianos – This is a job for professionals. Piano moving is our specialty. More than 35 years ago, our founder began his moving career by learning how to move pianos. Our knowledgeable staff has years of cumulative experience, and we know the ins and outs and ups and downs of piano moving. If necessary, we can visually survey your residence and evaluate the best way to get your piano safely out of the door. We will protect your floors, protect your piano, and use special equipment to get the job done.
Antique Crystal Chandeliers – As experienced local movers, we suggest taking several cartons, cutting them in half, and taping the pieces together to create a custom shaped container for the chandelier. You also need to make sure to carefully wrap its individual glass pieces in thin bubble wrap or foam packing paper. For best results, we recommend calling us to handle this item. We’ll get it to your new home without a scratch.
Life-Sized Cardboard Cutouts – You can simply slip your life-sized cardboard cutout into a mattress carton, or stick it between your mattress or box spring. Then, we can simply load your mattress vertically into the truck. If you need more help, our qualified experts can help you pack up your things in the most efficient way for the safest transport possible. We can do all the packing work for you and provide you with all the supplies you need.
Aquariums – This item requires special mirror boxes to the glass during transportation. Fortunately, we carry a complete line of packing boxes and supplies, and we have experienced packing crews ready to help you. We also have a fully stocked customer support vehicle and limited liability coverage to cover the items that we pack.
