Find professional fitness equipment movers in Los Angeles

Gym equipment removal can include picking up used gym equipment from a seller and delivering it to the buyer, relocating a home gym as part of a whole house move, or moving a commercial gym from one location to another. 

Regardless of the location, here are the typical steps your gym equipment mover will follow:

Packing the gym equipment

Your gym equipment mover will start by disassembling any larger items, like racks, benches, and stands. They’ll pack any small pieces (like accessories and smaller weights) into boxes. For larger equipment that can’t be disassembled, they’ll carefully wrap or pad this out with blankets and bubble wrap to protect it during transit. 

Next, they’ll transport heavier items on trolleys, before loading them into the ute tray, trailer, or truck. Your mover will add more old blankets to add padding between items and stop them from moving around during the drive. If it’s a ute or trailer, they’ll add a tarp on top to protect your items from the weather and secure everything with ratchet straps.

Transporting the gym equipment

Once everything’s loaded up, your fitness equipment remover will carefully transport everything to the next location. They’ll take corners and speed bumps slowly to avoid unnecessary jostling of your gym equipment. Once they arrive at your destination, they’ll park as close as possible to the entrance to make unloading easier.

Unpacking and reassembling

Your gym equipment specialist will unload the items from the truck, trailer, or ute tray. They’ll use a trolley to safely transport bigger and heavier items. This may require an extra person - whether you pitch in to help, or you hire a second-mover to help with lifting. 

Your movers will check where you want your gym equipment located and then move everything into place, unpacking them from the boxes and packaging. If needed, they’ll help reassemble any equipment that was flat-packed or disassembled for the move. And they’ll also wipe down any equipment to remove marks and dust from the move so that it’s ready for use straight away.
