What items should you not move a long distance?

Find your question

A long-distance move requires more preparation than a local move, and one of the best ways to ensure that your stuff arrives safely is to know what items should not be moved. Here’s a list of items that you should avoid packing for your relocation:

Fragile objects. Glassware, antiques, and artwork are all easily damaged in transit. If these items must be transported over a long distance, it is best to invest in professional packing services as they will ensure that these fragile materials are handled with care throughout the journey.
Large appliances. Many times these appliances require special equipment or procedures in order for them to function properly after being moved. Additionally, moving large appliances can take up much needed packing space in the van or truck used for transportation purposes. It is usually more prudent to purchase new appliances at your destination rather than trying to move them from your current location.
Hazardous materials. These include explosives, flammable liquids, paints, and aerosols. They can cause significant damage to surrounding areas and people if they become damaged or released during transit.
