Moving Tips & Tools

We understand there are many moving parts when relocating your life. That’s why Atlas® offers helpful tips and tools to ensure every step of your move goes as smoothly as possible.
MOVING PERSONAL ITEMS AND FAMILY HEIRLOOMS

Keep personal or sentimental items with you.

Medicines included in personal items that should be taken with you when movingAtlas can transport your personal or sentimental items, but it's best if you take them. This is especially true for anything that cannot be replaced. Should your shipment encounter unforeseen problems, you won't have to worry.
