If you’re considering using a storage container, there are some items that you should avoid putting inside. To prevent any issues, make sure to familiarize yourself with the following:
Several materials are classified as hazardous and, therefore, cannot be shipped. These include but are not restricted to gasoline, pesticides, explosives, and oil-chlorine bleach. It is also prohibited to transport these items in moving containers.
Containers cannot keep perishable items, like food, fresh. If they are not kept cool, the food will spoil.
Please take extra care when handling and storing pesticides, cleaning supplies, or pool chemicals, as they may pose a threat to humans or the environment if not done so properly. It is best to store these items in a safe, locked space, not a storage container.
Both people and property are at risk when explosives, ammunition, or firecrackers are stored in containers.
You cannot transport dead or alive animals in containers, including all pets and farm animals.
Before you finalize your travel itinerary, consider the best way to transport everything on your packing list while also keeping them safe. Some items can be shipped in advance or by a different delivery method that doesn’t require lugging everything with you all at once.
Researching different moving companies before picking one can help avoid any stressful surprises on the actual day of your move. When you compare rates and services from a few places, you’ll have a better idea of what to expect. And don’t forget to ask plenty of questions! This way, you’ll know that all of your belongings will arrive safely at your new home.
