Do Not Haul
We transport many things, but not everything. When you sign your SureMove contract, you agree to not pack restricted items such as hazardous materials or antiques in the moving trailer. It’s also a good idea to not put high-value items such as jewelry or irreplaceable items such as photos and photo albums on the trailer.
Important Internal combustion engines on small outdoor equipment such as lawn mowers or weed trimmers must be drained of all fluids. No gasoline, diesel, propane or motor oil should go on the moving trailer. This is a restriction mandated by the Department of Transportation.
