Yes, you can very carefully lay down a grandfather clock to move it, but it requires a bit of prep work. Remember, all of your clock's components and mechanisms are delicate, and shifting them can cause serious damage. Before laying it down, you will need to remove these pieces, plus the weights and the pendulum.

• Can you guarantee my delivery date?

• Can you provide references? 

• What do you charge extra for?

• What is your cancellation policy?
