Certain possessions require more than careful handling—they need movers with specialized training, purpose-built equipment, and years of experience. Whether it's a family heirloom piano, a valuable art collection, or a heavy gun safe, Wasatch Transfer & Storage provides specialty moving services that standard moving companies can't match.
Our specialty item movers undergo extensive training beyond standard moving techniques. Piano movers learn proper balance points, skid board techniques, and stair navigation for instruments ranging from spinets to concert grands. Art handlers understand museum-quality wrapping, custom crating, and climate considerations. Safe movers have the equipment and knowledge to move items weighing thousands of pounds.
We've successfully moved pianos into Park City chalets, transported antique furniture from estate sales, and relocated art collections worth significant sums. This experience, combined with proper insurance coverage and a genuine respect for our clients' valuables, makes us the trusted choice for specialty moving throughout Salt Lake City and Northern Utah.
