📦🕰 How to Move a Grandfather Clock
(Without Breaking Time Itself)
1️⃣ Hire a professional mover – these clocks are delicate and valuable.
2️⃣ Remove the weights – label them so they go back in the same order.
3️⃣ Remove the pendulum – handle it with care to avoid bending.
4️⃣ Secure and box the parts – wrap each in packing paper or bubble wrap, place in a padded box.
5️⃣ Use a grandfather clock box – ours is padded, lined with bumpers, and wrapped in heavy-duty brown paper for full protection.
6️⃣ Move it upright – never lay it flat; it can damage the mechanism.
💡 Tip: Keep all small hardware (hooks, chains, screws) in a labeled bag taped inside the clock box so nothing gets lost.
