Below we have listed the industry standard list of "non-allowables." This list should be reviewed to understand what items should be reviewed to understand what items should not be included in any shipment. The purpose of excluding these items is to protect drivers, helpers, and your shipment.

Perishables - Food, plants, or living things that may die or spoil in transit.*
*For shipments moving less than 150 miles and delivered within 24 hours of pickup, agents may agree to transport perishables that are properly packed and require no servicing in transit.
Note: You should empty your refrigerators and freezers and keep appliance doors open for at least 24 hours in advance of loading. This will allow appliances to dry out and prevent the growth of mold.
Items of Personal Importance/Sentimental Value - This third category of non-allowables can create problems should your shipment be delayed or items lost. We suggest that irreplaceable and/or sentimental items be carried with you instead of being packed with your shipment.
