They moved a super heavy, metal tanker desk. Very friendly and patient as I kinda hovered bc of my own anxiety. If you want any lug movers, you want them. They also took pics of the item before I received it because I bought it off of FB marketplace.

Samuel and Dante were amazing - on time, professional, and quick. They went above and beyond - from figuring out how to get some bulky furniture down a very narrow spiral staircase to helping me remove a propane tanks from the gas grill. Thank you!

Oscar and Alexander were AMAZING! They went above and beyond. They had to take the legs off an incredibly heavy metal tanker desk at the pickup location and got it to the drop off very quickly. There they reattached the legs, put the desk into place, and were friendly and efficient the entire time. This is my 4th or 5th LUGG move and EVERYTIME their movers have been great! Thanks Oscar and Alexander!

Showed up on time, and did a good job securing the propane tank seperately from the grill so that it would travel safely.

They followed directions and concerned about our safety as the propane tank did not seem to seal properly with the gas line so they were not able to finish assembling which is understandable. Very good at lifting and punctual! Thank you!

Daniel and Enrique were fantastic. When the item they were moving for us didn't fit, they brought it to our storage unit, shifted stuff around to fit it in, and even agreed to move a different item back to our home. Definitely worth tipping. They are also fun to talk to, with interesting stories about other items they have moved. Need to tow a broken-down tank? Daniel has done that.

The Dwayne and Kevin duo was great. I was holding my breath worried about the move (large and heavy dining table plus steep stairs to my office suite, which is in a really old building and is probably “grandfathered in” instead of meeting current building code requirements- know what I’m sayin’?), but Dwayne and Kevin are pros, and the Facebook marketplace said that they were really careful with loading the dining table and chairs. I now have a nice extendable glass top dining table in my conference room, and I couldn’t be more pleased.

Marvin and Edwen were patient when it came to picking up my vintage console table from the seller. I didn’t realize the piece had a glass top, so I did not warn them but they came prepared with a blanket that they bungie’d over to transport it safely. They kept in communication and were very friendly! Amazing service

Expert Fish Tank Movers

Need help moving a large aquarium or terrarium? Relocating an aquarium demands extreme caution to prevent glass stress, cracks, and future leaks. Our fish tank movers understand the fragility of large glass tanks and the awkward weight of solid cabinet stands. We utilize professional-grade blankets, padding, and secure strapping to stabilize your tank during transit, ensuring it arrives ready for your aquatic life. From standard freshwater tanks to large saltwater setups, trust our team to handle your aquarium transport with the delicate touch it deserves.


Why Customers Choose Lugg for Aquarium Moving

  • Careful handling with padding and straps
  • Same-day booking for urgent moves
  • Heavy lifting for stands and glass
  • Over 1 million 5-star moves completed
  • Rated Excellent on Trustpilot

Preparing for Your Fish Tank Move

For the safety of your tank and your pets, please prepare the following:

Empty the tank: The aquarium must be completely empty before we arrive. Please transfer all fish, plants, and water to portable holding containers.

  • Remove debris: Remove all gravel, sand, decorations, and filtration equipment to reduce the weight and prevent stress cracks on the glass bottom.
  • Dry it out: Dry the inside of the tank as much as possible to prevent slipping.
  • Pack accessories: If you have the original box or edge protectors, having them ready is helpful. Ensure the stand is also cleared off and ready to be moved separately.
