Moving Ammo Within Georgia?

[chilly65]

Do any of you know a company in the Atlanta area that will move ammo to Cleveland GA? We are moving to a new home, and the movers will not move it. I have read that there are companies that specialize in moving ammo. Would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks

Just move it yourself?

How much ammo do you have ?

UPS will move it, why wouldn't a mover?

How much do you have to move? If possible, I'd suggest just renting a truck and doing it yourself.

The majority of moving companies will have no trouble moving your handguns, rifles, or other legal firearms. The ammunition, however, they cannot and will not. This is primarily because ammo falls under the “volatile” category. Movers won't move gasoline, kerosene, paints, and other volatile materials, either.

Hell, I'll move your ammo in exchange for some, where ya moving from? Doubtful you'll have 5000 lbs of it, but even then I could get it done within 24 hrs

Funny how one needs a HAZMAT endorsement to haul small arms ammo in a commercial truck, but that same truck does't require placards identifying hazardous content.

I'd rent a U-haul and have some friends load it and unload it for you.
Drive it to your new home yourself.
Then treat your friends to beer and brats and BBQ.

I'll bet you could put 800 lbs. of ammo inside a regular car, a 4-door sedan, safely and easily. Put some on the floorboards all around the vehicle. Some on the passenger's front seat, some on the back seat, and a lot in the trunk. If you have a literal ton of ammo to move, then use 3 small cars. Or use the same car and make 3 trips.
