The Holiday season is over and we are finally getting back to "normal". Here is a great blog post from one of the agents here at the office, Jon Barrett. Thanks for the great and very interesting post Jon.

Moved To Tears

One of my best friends is a mover who specializes in local and long distance moving. Almost invariably every time we get together he’s got another story about a move that involves a customer not listening to pre-move advice from him, thereby creating a dilemma. Let me ask you this—when you go to your local propane refill station what does the clerk always tell you NOT to do? That’s right, don’t bring your tank inside (even though in theory it’s empty). They just don’t want to take the chance there might be a mishap with the tank.

Guess what?! Movers don’t want to take that chance, either. My friend always gives his client a list of potential problems. If your mover gives you that, READ IT! At the very least, he or she should be telling you what is acceptable, but more importantly what is not acceptable for transportation. “What do you mean you won’t put that on your truck? What am I supposed to do with it?”

Read the following article about what movers won’t take—some are common sense and some are like, what?
