Appliance Moving
Appliances are heavy, tall and full of parts that do not like to be tipped. We use appliance dollies and straps, protect floors and door frames and plan the path, whether the appliance is moving across the room or across the state. Hookups should be handled by a qualified trade.

About appliance moving
Do you hook up gas or water lines?
No. Gas, water and electric hookups should be done by a qualified trade. We move the appliance and set it in place.
How should I prepare my refrigerator?
Empty and defrost it ahead of time, and let it dry. Tape or tie the doors. Many refrigerators should stand upright for a while before they are plugged back in.
Can you move an appliance to a different floor?
Often yes, with the right gear and enough hands. We plan the stairs first.
