When you go new places® with Atlas, you are served by one of the world's most experienced and trusted names in moving. We are committed to making your move successful, and safety is a priority.

Before you move, you should understand how Atlas regards "non-allowable" items.

Essentially, these fall into three categories:

  1. Items we cannot move.
  2. Items we will not move, except under special circumstances.
  3. Items you should move yourself.

Knowing which items are “non-allowables” can spare you the hassle of having to repack them or disposing of them on the day of your move.

Use this guide to understand the differences in items, and how to handle them. You'll be ready on moving day, with no unpleasant surprises.
