What items will movers not move in Sarasota?

Movers generally will not carry hazardous materials. That includes propane tanks, gasoline cans, paints and solvents, pool chemicals, fertilizers, ammunition, fireworks and other flammable, explosive or corrosive substances. Ask your mover for its written list of prohibited items before you pack, and plan to dispose of these items safely instead.

Most movers also decline live plants, perishable food and pets. Items of high personal or monetary value, including cash, jewelry, legal documents, financial papers, prescription medications and irreplaceable heirlooms, are best carried by you personally rather than left on a moving truck.

If you are unsure about a specific item, ask the company ahead of your move date. A mover can tell you the safest way to handle anything outside its standard terms.
