Yes, I have noticed the list of WON'T MOVE is getting longer each time I use a moving company.

Pretty soon I will need a second moving truck to take all the items the paid moving company won't take.

The list makes sense, but I bet there are some people who don't read the list....

   The Fear of Lawyers, Lawsuits, and Liability is paralyzing our country.  

  I will rent a Truck from Ryder or Penske, and move it myself.

When we moved into our house the previous owners left 83 gallons of old paints. Oil, water, dried out, pink, green, you name it we probably had some. It took a while to get that taken away Sheila.

I believe that everything on that list could be banned - except for plants.  I moved from Los Angeles to Chicago in 1986 and they did indeed pack my lovely live plants.  The problem was that once they hit Chicago's lovely wintery weather, they wilted and died.  I sort of wish they had left them behind!

I too had live plants moved from West Palm Beach to Sarasota without a problem.  Some of the other chemicals, I can understand.
