items is the industry term for items professional moving companies will not transport, and which are not to be transported in Trailer2You trailers, vans or other vehicles hired. They are included in the list of Trailer2You and Trailer2You Hire the Driver Service List of What we Don’t Move.

DON’TS:
What items cannot be moved by Trailer2You and the Trailer2You Hire the Driver service?

This list not only includes no-brainers such as ammunition and gasoline, but also seemingly harmless items like nail polish and kids chemistry sets. Although not hazardous, Trailer2You does not allow the items on this list to be moved in its equipment or by the Trailer2You Hire the Driver service. The Trailer2You Hire the Driver service does not move perishable food and personal or sentimental items.

Many of these items can be given to friends and family. Unwanted items will have to be disposed of properly. Contact your city or town authority for where to dispose of these items. Hazardous items are generally those considered explosive, flammable or corrosive.
