In addition to our local, long-distance, and international moving services, we also provide specialty moving services for all those items in your household that are tricky to pack and move. With us, you don’t have to worry about the safety of your precious possessions. Our skilled moving crew is trained to handle various kinds of items properly. Some of the fragile items we handle are:

• electronics
• wine
• exercise equipment
• electrical fixtures
• outdoor objects like hot tubs, basketball hoops, swing sets, trampolines, and gas grills/BBQs
• pianos
• other items like furniture, appliances, etc.

Electronics

We move electronic goods like flat-screen TVs, personal computers and home theatre systems. If required, we can remove the flat-screen TV from the wall, disconnect it properly and wrap and crate it to ensure that it is shipped to your new location safely. We will even uncrate and remount the TV set on delivery. Before moving home theatre systems and personal computers, we disconnect the wires and cables and disassemble the systems carefully. The loose parts and wires are then wrapped, crated, and shipped. On delivery, we reconnect the devices and test them to confirm that they are working properly.

Ideally, electronic goods you want to be moved should always be packed in their original boxes. If you fail to find the original boxes or have already thrown them away, our custom crating services will have you covered.

Wine

Contact us to move your wine collection from Toronto or the GTA. We employ a proprietary procedure for safely packing and storing your wine bottles for shipment. We will provide you with custom-built crates for packing the wine bottles and will pack your entire wine collection. These special crates ensure that the bottles don’t break during the move. We always ship wine bottles in refrigerated trucks. As a result, the temperature of the wine is maintained successfully, even if it’s a long-distance move.

Exercise equipment

We move all kinds of exercise equipment, including elliptical trainers, treadmills, and universal gyms. You can rely on the moving staff of Phillips Moving and Storage to safely disassemble the equipment and wrap and label the loose parts, then transport the equipment to your new location and reassemble them.

When transporting exercise equipment with weights, we remove the weights before packing the machine. The dismantled parts and weights from each machine are kept together and labeled accordingly. Twine and ropes are used for securing loose weights. On the other hand, loose wires and cords are secured with twist ties or tape. Pieces from the same equipment are then packed together.

Electrical fixtures

You can book our specialty moving services for relocating electrical fixtures like ceiling fans, light fixtures, and chandeliers.

• Ceiling fans: First, we remove the blades and wrap them one by one. The fan is then disconnected from the ceiling and packed separately. On delivery, we unpack, assemble and connect all your ceiling fans.
• Light fixtures: Our moving staff works by removing both external and internal housings of light bulbs using the appropriate tools. Then, we detach the wiring and pack the light fixtures in custom-built crates using packing supplies of the highest quality.
• Chandeliers: We disconnect the chandelier, remove all the crystals from it, wrap all its parts separately, and pack the chandelier in a custom-made crate before transporting it to your new location.

Outdoor objects

We move outdoor objects like hot tubs, basketball hoops, swing sets, trampolines, and gas grills/BBQs. Before packing and transporting these items, we disassemble them and wrap the parts separately. All parts of the same object are packed together to make the reassembling process easier.  Our moving staff will reassemble these outdoor objects on delivery. When moving hot tubs, we begin by disconnecting lines and capping them (we do the same also when shipping gas grills and BBQs). If needed, we drain the tubs. We even reconnect hot tubs and fill them on delivery when requested by the customer.

Piano moving

The skills required for moving a piano safely and efficiently are different from those required for moving most other objects. Phillips Moving and Storage Canada is represented by experienced moving staff specially trained for moving pianos. You can book our piano moving services to move pianos of all sizes and shapes. We have moving personnel who can relocate concert grand pianos as safely and easily as they move baby grand pianos.

Other items we move

Here are some more items we move:

• Furniture like Murphy beds, waterbeds, computer desks, and wall units
• Appliances like refrigerators, water softeners, dishwashers, and washers/dryers
• Table games like ping pong, foosball, and billiards
• Grandfather clocks

If required, we disassemble and pack these items for shipment and reassemble and re-install them on delivery.
