Frequently asked questions

What insurance covers high-value items?

Standard household goods coverage is only 60¢/lb. For high-value pieces, ask your matched provider for Full Value Protection with a declared value matching appraisals — typically 1–2% of declared value as the premium.

How are paintings and sculptures crated?

Custom wood crates with foam blocking, corner protection, and humidity buffers. For oversized or fragile pieces, providers build crates on-site before loading.

Can you ship a wine collection long-distance?

Yes. Wine ships in climate-controlled cabinets at cellar temperature with vibration dampening. Some states require ABC permits — your provider handles that.

Do you handle pianos and pool tables on the same move?

Yes. Pianos and slate pool tables are common add-ons to full-service moves. Note them up front so the right equipment and crew skills are scheduled.
