What won't movers take?
Anything flammable, explosive or corrosive: propane tanks, gasoline, paint, aerosols, fireworks, ammunition, pool chemicals, many cleaning products.
Most won't take perishable food or plants on a long move.
Medicines, documents, cash, jewelry and keys should never go on the truck anyway — they ride with you.
Ask your mover for their own list; it's usually in the paperwork.
