The one thing mentioned above that CAN go on the truck would be the lawn mower--if the gas and oil tanks have already been emptied.

Fireworks are forbidden.

· House plants--a number of states have protocols about what houseplants may cross over the state line. Mites and pests which are not a problem in some states are substantial hazards in others, so leave your indoor plants for the neighborhood friends or give them to your pals. If you're bringing the planting pots, thoroughly clean them with bleach prior to when you load them.

· Alcohol--regulations fluctuate among states. Stay safe and have a clear the bar party prior to when you move.

· Gasoline

Just about every professional mover in Atlanta has its own directory of banned objects, nevertheless these will be the normal items you can expect to leave behind or carry yourself.

Chemical substances are based on their ability to have interaction with other matter and change the structure and substance of the matter. Simply put, this implies that when you put weed killer and wood stains on the truck alongside one another and they happen to interact under force or high temperature, seriously terrible things can occur. And if you believe a couple of bottles of nail polish and remover plus a chemistry set will not pack enough of a wallop to change anything, you would be wrong. So Never pack the following.

· Household Cleaners

· Paint and Paint Remover--this includes nail polish

· Pool chemicals
