Specialty items we move
Pianos (upright, console, and baby grand)
Pianos demand precision. Our piano movers build a plan around your instrument and home, focusing on clear pathways, protection, and a steady, controlled move from start to finish. Whether you’re relocating across town or pairing your piano with a longer haul, we coordinate timing and placement so your instrument arrives in the condition it left.
Gun safes and heavy safes
As a safe moving company, we know that weight, balance, and building access matter. Our gun safe movers assess entryways, stairs, and each turn radius to determine the safest route and manpower. For extra-heavy cabinets and vault-style units, we scale the team and equipment accordingly—exact, controlled motion over speed—because safety for your property and our crew is the priority. When items are exceptionally dense, our heavy item movers plan a step-by-step approach to reduce risk and ensure stability.
Hot tubs and spas
Hot tubs combine bulk, weight, and sensitive components. Our hot tub movers coordinate clearances, ground conditions, and the safest carry path. We prioritize protection for surfaces, siding, railings, and landscapes during loading and unloading. If your move includes a longer route, we’ll align with our Long Distance Moving Services to keep schedules tight and predictable.
Aquariums and fish tanks
Glass and acrylic require extra care. Our fish tank movers focus on protection, padding, and secure transport, with careful handling through doorways and steps. We’ll discuss any unique dimensions, stands, or cabinetry so we can plan proper loading, transit, and final placement. If your tank is part of a larger household or office move, we’ll choreograph timing to minimize downtime.
How our process works
1. Assessment and planning
We start with a short consultation to understand your item’s dimensions, the pickup and delivery settings, and any access challenges (stairs, tight hallways, elevators). From there, we propose a plan and estimated crew size for smooth, safe handling.
2. Protection and preparation
We prepare the path, protect floors and doorways, and secure the item for transport. Our goal is to minimize risk to the item and your property while keeping the move efficient.
3. Safe transport and placement
On move day, we execute the plan with steady, controlled movements—no rushing. We place the item where you want it, align it for functionality, and clean up the work area.
4. Follow-up and support
We confirm that placement is correct and answer any questions. If your specialty item is part of a more complex household or business relocation, we can coordinate with our Commercial Moving Services to streamline everything.
