Non-Transportable and Prohibited Items Policy

Keeping Your Move Safe and Compliant

At US Home Relocation, safety and compliance come first. To protect your belongings, our team, and your property, certain items cannot be packed or transported on our moving trucks. These restrictions are based on federal and state regulations, as well as practical safety concerns. Please review the following categories before your move to ensure a smooth process.

1. Hazardous or Flammable Materials

For everyone’s safety, we cannot transport materials that are flammable, explosive, or corrosive. This includes but is not limited to:

Paints, thinners, and varnishes
Propane tanks, lighter fluid, or gasoline
Fireworks or ammunition
Cleaning chemicals, bleach, or aerosols

If you’re unsure whether an item qualifies as hazardous, contact our team for guidance.

2. Perishable and Temperature-Sensitive Goods

Perishable foods, plants, or items that can spoil or attract pests are not suitable for long transit. Please plan to move or dispose of these before moving day. Examples include:

Fresh or frozen food
Open pantry items
Live plants or soil-based materials

3. Personal or Irreplaceable Items

While our movers handle every shipment with care, we recommend that you personally transport valuable or sentimental items. US Home Relocation cannot assume responsibility for:

Jewelry, cash, or credit cards
Important documents, passports, or legal papers
Family heirlooms, collectibles, or photo albums

4. Restricted and Illegal Goods

Any items prohibited by law or restricted for transport cannot be included in your shipment. This may include controlled substances, illegal weapons, or stolen property. Transporting these items can result in serious legal consequences.

5. Safe Preparation and Alternatives

If you have restricted materials you must move, we can recommend safe alternatives. For instance, local disposal centers can handle hazardous waste, and climate-controlled couriers can ship sensitive items. Our goal is to help you stay compliant and move efficiently.

By following US Home Relocation’s Non-Transportable and Prohibited Items Policy, you help ensure a secure and worry-free moving experience. If you have any doubts about specific items, please contact our support team before packing day. We’ll review your list and advise on the safest approach for every part of your move.
