When you are in the process of packing up all of your personal possessions for your next move, it is important to know that some items can’t be included. Moving companies simply will not transport a number of items in order to protect themselves and the rest of your possessions from harm during the trip to your new home. Before your professional movers arrive, make sure you have not packed up anything they will not allow. Here is what All American Moving and Storage can’t move.

ITEMS OF PERSONAL OR SENTIMENTAL VALUE
There are some items that need to be carried along with you when you move. If you have items of real personal or sentimental value, don’t risk anything happening to them by packing them along with the items in the back of our trucks.
