Amidst COVID-19, with proper safety protocols, Cavalier Moving is open and ready to move you!

Specialty Items: Can it be moved?

What are specialty items?

Specialty items are any bulky, delicate, or heavy items outside of your normal move. Things like big mirrors, fragile electronics, and large appliances. In addition things like art whether its sculptures, delicate paintings or other pieces.

  • Ask us how we transport these items. We have a lot of experience moving these things and will happily explain our methods.
  • Many front-load washers/dryers have special pins to secure their drums. We are happy to install these pins for you if you still have them. These pins are particularly vital for transporting front-load washers/dryers up & down flights of stairs.
