Expert Handlers of Specialty Items
At the heart of our moving service is our commitment to giving customers a hassle-free experience. It is in this spirit that we handle our clients’ belongings with care. From bath towels to ceramic bowls, count on Wirks Moving and Storage’s specialty item moving team. We will pack, transport, and unload them properly so that they may arrive at your new house all in one piece.
How we handle your possessions, however, can vary according to their size, fragility, and the material they’re made of. Clothing, towels, and sheets go into standard boxes, for example, along with pillows, books, and other items that don’t need padding. Plates, glasses, cutlery, and other breakable objects, meanwhile, require cushioning and extra surface protection.
The specialty items we handle include:
- Antiques (grandfather clocks, rugs, decorative items)
- Wood furniture (beds, dining table, chairs, wardrobes)
- Sports and training equipment (treadmill, golf clubs, foil)
- Musical instruments (electric guitar, amp, recording equipment, mini-theater television, and sound system)
- Large recreational centerpieces (piano, pool table)
- Art pieces (paintings, sculptures, taxidermy art)
- Fragile/breakable items (china collection, vases, delicate pieces of furniture)
We Keep Your Specialty Items Safe
When you’ve lived in your home for years, you’re are sure to have accumulated many material possessions. Some will undoubtedly be valuable—specialty items that are either or both fragile and expensive.
Count on Wirks Moving and Storage to handle your specialty belongings with care. Having helped families and households move across Georgia for the past ten years, we’ve become experts at packing specialty items and transporting them over short and long distances.
We do more than put your precious belongings in boxes.
- We use premium packing materials that don’t just contain but also protect the items inside boxes.
- We plan how to position your belongings inside our moving trucks so they stay stable and upright during the drive.
- For non-boxed items, we wrap them in protective fabrics or bubble wrap and secure them onto the truck to avoid toppling due to the vehicle’s motion.
- For standard, breakable household items, we use bubble wrap or speciallydesigned partitions and inserts (for glasses, plates, bottles, and cutlery).
- We add packing peanuts or shredded paper to pad irregularlyshaped specialty items (e.g., glass lamps, vases, table centerpieces) inside boxes.
Our packing team knows of packing strategies that could only be developed with years of experience and practical application. From the materials we use to the sequence of loading boxes into trucks, we strategize to protect your belongings from scratches or dents while en route to your new home.

Looking for a new moving company is always challenging so started the look a few weeks ago for a big move for me and based on my special needs- piano moving/lots of appliances , actually had another mover recommend Wirks.

Kristy H.The whole process with Wirks was by far and away the best we have experienced and we have moved a lot. The ladies who packed everything ensured that everything arrived in one piece.

We had over 36’ of household items. Keith drove overnight, 700 miles to get our stuff to Michigan from Georgia promptly. In Georgia, Matt supervised a half-dozen workers, including Keith.

This is the second time using Wirks. The customer service in the office with Britta and with movers on both moves in the field was fantastic. All the movers both times were so professional and in our opinion white glove service during the whole process.
