Heavy and Oversized Item Moving
Some things are simply big or heavy: armoires, sectional sofas, gym equipment, grills, large TVs and big desks. We measure the path, bring the right gear and enough hands, and take the item apart when that makes the carry safer. If it does not fit through the door, we will tell you before we try.
