Direct transport for items that need more attention

Standard parcel networks and ordinary freight are not the right fit for every item. Specialty transport is designed for selected pieces that need careful planning, protective handling, clean enclosed equipment, securement, and communication throughout the route.

Depending on the approved scope, service may include:

  • Direct pickup and delivery coordination
  • Clean enclosed transport
  • Moving blankets and protective wrapping
  • Careful loading and securement
  • Route and schedule communication
  • Coordination with sellers, auction houses, dealers, designers, or family representatives
  • Careful unloading
  • Room-of-choice placement when arranged in advance

Every project is reviewed for equipment fit, item condition, dimensions, weight, access, labor, route, timing, and protection requirements before it is accepted.

Regional and interstate items we evaluate

  • Fine furniture and antiques
  • Auction and estate purchases
  • Designer, custom, and showroom furniture
  • Artwork, mirrors, décor, and architectural pieces
  • Heirlooms and irreplaceable collections
  • Select commercial and final-mile shipments
  • Multiple pieces that fit our enclosed equipment and route

We do not promise that every oversized, extremely heavy, crated, climate-sensitive, hazardous, or specialized item will fit our service. When a shipment requires a different carrier, custom crating, rigging, or equipment, we say so before booking.

Owner-operated interstate authority

You work directly with the Slovensky family rather than a broker passing the job through an unknown chain of carriers. That means clearer answers, a defined transportation plan, and direct responsibility for communication throughout the shipment.

Slohaven Transfer operates under active federal motor-carrier authority. USDOT #4565495 | MC #1815278. The company carries commercial auto, general liability, and cargo insurance.

Birmingham to the Southeast and beyond

Common work begins or ends in Alabama, with qualified routes evaluated throughout the Southeast and beyond. Availability and pricing depend on origin, destination, mileage, timing, item details, labor, access, protection requirements, and how the route fits the operating schedule.

Flexible timing can sometimes create better routing options, while fixed deadlines or expedited work may require dedicated scheduling. Every quote states the agreed transportation scope and payment terms before booking.

Frequently asked questions

Are you authorized for interstate transport?

Yes. Slohaven maintains active USDOT and MC authority as a motor carrier of property.

Do you provide full interstate household moves?

That is not our primary service. We focus on selected furniture, antiques, valuable items, and specialty transportation projects.

Can you pick up from an auction house, dealer, or store in another state?

Yes, when the item, pickup requirements, route, timing, and access fit our service.

How is interstate pricing determined?

Quotes consider mileage, route, timing, item quantity, dimensions, weight, access, crew requirements, protection, placement, and whether the work requires dedicated scheduling.
