Heavy Item Movers in Atlanta, GA

Quick answer

Heavy-item moving is the same licensed crew handling the things a normal two-person lift can't: safes, gym equipment, pool tables, and oversized furniture. LIOO assesses the weight and access in advance, brings heavy-duty dollies, straps, and stair equipment, protects the floors and doorways, and moves it across metro Atlanta at an hourly rate.

Heavy items we move

Safes — home and office safes, including gun safes; we assess the weight and the path and bring the crew and equipment to move them without dropping or gouging anything.
Gym equipment — treadmills, ellipticals, home gyms, weight racks, and loaded plate sets, broken down where needed and moved in sequence.
Pool & game tables — heavy slate pool tables and arcade cabinets; we handle the heavy transport (see the note on slate below).
Oversized furniture — sectionals, armoires, entertainment walls, and solid-wood pieces that don't fit a normal lift.
Large appliances — refrigerators, washers, dryers, and freezers, dollied and strapped, with floors protected on the path out.

Heavy items are part of our broader furniture moving and local moving work, so they can move with the rest of your household in a single job.

How we move heavy items safely

Assess weight and access. Before the crew arrives we confirm the item's weight, the doorways, stairs, and turns, the truck approach, and the floors that need protecting — so the right crew size and equipment show up.
Protect the path. Floors, thresholds, door frames, and corners are protected before anything moves, so a heavy item doesn't leave a mark on the way out or in.
Move with the right gear. Heavy-duty dollies, straps, and stair-climbing technique let the crew control the weight on stairs and thresholds — deliberately, never dropped or dragged.
Place and check. We set the item exactly where you want it, level it if it needs leveling, and confirm nothing was damaged before we leave.

Slate pool tables should be disassembled and re-felted by a table specialist — the slate is heavy and precise to reset. We handle the heavy transport and can move a disassembled table or work alongside your table technician; we don't re-level or re-felt slate ourselves.

What heavy-item moving costs in Atlanta

Heavy-item moving is billed at LIOO's all-inclusive hourly rate — from $160/hour, crew, truck, dollies, straps, and floor protection included — on the actual time worked, with a 2.5-hour minimum (3 hours on weekends, same-day bookings, and moves 25+ miles from downtown). There's no flat "heavy fee"; what moves the price is the weight and the access:

Weight and crew size — a heavy safe or loaded gym needs more movers than a standard lift.
Access — stairs, tight doorways, long carries, and elevators add time on both ends.
Distance — mostly relevant when the move crosses I-285 or goes long-distance.

You get the hourly rate and an honest time estimate before you book — see the Atlanta moving cost guide. Every item is covered by released valuation at $0.60/lb, with full-value protection available.

Heavy item moving FAQ

Can you move a gun safe or home safe?+

Yes. We move home and office safes, including gun safes. We assess the weight and the path in advance and bring the crew size, heavy-duty dollies, and stair equipment to move it without dropping it or damaging floors and door frames. Tell us the make or weight when you request a quote.

Do you move pool tables?+

We handle the heavy transport. A slate pool table should be disassembled and re-felted by a table specialist — the slate is heavy and precise to reset. We can move a disassembled table or work alongside your table technician, but we don't re-level or re-felt slate ourselves.

Can you move gym equipment like a treadmill or home gym?+

Yes. Treadmills, ellipticals, home gyms, weight racks, and plate sets are broken down where needed, moved in sequence, and reassembled if that's part of the job. Heavy loaded equipment is assessed in advance for crew size.

How do you protect my floors and stairs?+

Floors, thresholds, door frames, and corners are protected before anything moves. Heavy items are controlled on dollies and straps with proper stair technique, so the weight is never dropped or dragged across a floor.

How much does it cost to move a heavy item?+

It's billed at our all-inclusive hourly rate on actual time worked, with a 2.5-hour minimum. The main factors are the item's weight and the access at both ends. We give you the rate and a time estimate before you book.
