Expert Fitness Equipment Movers You Can Trust

When it comes to moving your home gym, the warm-up phase is all the hands-on time we’ll need with you to inform and prepare for your move. This includes:

• Discussing the types of gym equipment you have first. We’ll ask you questions and get a sense of what equipment from your gym you’d like to move. Then, we can determine whether handling the machines and equipment for your specific move is within our expertise. We’ll be honest with you about whether we feel we can take care of your move safely. Assessing what your home gym relocation needs are will also allow us to arrive prepared on move day with extra padding, protection, and the right tools for the job.
• Unplugging, shutting down, and cleaning the workout gear. After we get the details of your move, it’s a great time for you to roll up your sleeves to do a bit of preparation. Make sure that any of your electronic fitness machines are unplugged and shut off. Grab your cleaning supplies and wiping down the equipment is also another item on the to-do list you can complete before any lifting occurs. Read any instructions on proper cleaning steps specific to the equipment you’re sanitizing; some materials may fade with the use of certain cleaners.

After these steps, we’ll take the baton and pick up the pace to move your gym equipment. Our expert movers will then:

• Disassemble the machines (if needed).While taking apart your machines may seem a little excessive, it’s actually recommended for many types of equipment when moving. It may be especially necessary if the machines or weights won’t fit through a typical-sized doorway or stairwell. We’ll make an inventory of any pieces removed from your equipment so all components are accounted for and ensure that disassembly won’t damage your items.
• Determine the weight of items and what will be needed to make the move safe. Our team will assess your heavy items and determine the best way to navigate it through your home. This may include using dollies or hand trucks to lift and move your equipment. To protect your flooring, our movers will use furniture slides or cardboard to avoid scuffs and scrapes. We’ll also wrap any equipment up with the appropriate materials (such as moving blankets) to protect it and the space it’s currently in from bumps and damages.

From there, we’ll either get your home gym to the next location or if you’re not ready for it in your space just yet, we’ll store it for you. Storing your equipment with electronic components is a special concern, because they don’t tolerate the ups and downs of temperature change well. Ensuring that the items can be stored in a climate controlled facility will ensure that they will be ready to use when you’re done storing them.
