Packing Guide: Items not to Pack
Please pay a special attention to the current section before you start your own packing and loading. It is crucial for you to realize which items you can and cannot ship. There are some “secrets” of the professional packing that you cannot do by your own. And there are also rules and regulations that govern the whole process of packing and shipment for all movers without any exceptions. Thus, all that listed above help ensure safety and reduce risks. You should know that some items you cannot pack yourself, for example you might need professionals to pack up your exercise equipment in the way to prevent damage. The following list serves as a guide only on what not to pack. In the event that you still have some specific questions or requests please contact your local mover in Chicago, Cleveland or Detroit to provide you with all information needed.Flammable, corrosive or explosive items:
- Fireworks / Motor Oil / Paint Thinner / Pesticides;
- Car Batteries / Matches / Fertilizer / Paints;
- Chemistry Sets / Aerosols / Kerosene / Pool Chemicals;
- Nail Polish and Remover / Liquid Bleach / Ammunition / Stern;
- Lamp Oil / Propane Tanks / Cleaning Fluid;
- Acid / Charcoal / Lighter Fluid / Gasoline Poisons;
- Batteries / Loaded Weapons / Weed Killer / Ammonia.
While unloading your refrigerator and freezers should be emptied and defrost with doors wide open so that gadgets could dry out well. ReliableVanlines.com agent may also agree to move perishables in case they are properly packed and the shipment period does not exceed 24 hours.
We should stress the importance of taking most necessary things with you, and your local moving company may refuse any responsibility if you include them on the load without his/her knowledge. Such items may be of no harm or term of use, but may be of the first need upon your arrival at your new home, ex.:
address books / car keys / financial statements / research papers/projects / medicine / or jewelry, etc.
