Learn which appliances movers can handle and what must be disconnected, emptied, or prepared before moving day.

Movers can often handle fridges, freezers, washers, dryers, dishwashers, and small appliances when they are ready to move and fit through the access route.
Appliances should be unplugged, emptied, disconnected from water or gas, cleaned, dry, and accessible before the crew arrives.
Movers generally do not disconnect gas, hardwired electrical, or plumbing connections. Use a licensed professional when a connection requires trade work.
