Morgan Manhattan Moving and Storage, morganmanhattan.com
Ahead of a move in Carroll Gardens, P J Sweeney, a teacher, says he was “extremely nervous” about his antiques. “We have a few pieces that are family heirlooms,” he says, “like some delicate glass scales used by my great-great-grandfather, who was a pharmacist.” A colleague suggested Morgan Manhattan — known, he told Sweeney, for handling expensive, challenging, and otherwise delicate items. The company regularly moves pianos, artwork, and wine, often building custom crates to safely transport belongings to specialized storage facilities and vaults. (According to Bridget Russo, who stages apartments around the city and recommends Morgan to her clients, the mover will even partner with rigging companies to gently hoist pianos, or king-size mattresses, or large artworks, through penthouse windows.) As for Sweeney’s antique scales: “They individually packaged each one,” he says, “and delivered them without any damage at all.”
