It is tough to move during the winter, but keeping an eye on the weather and being prepared for any unpredictable circumstances can help ensure your moving day goes smoothly in the cold months. Here are several tips you can use when planning!<\/span><\/p>\n

Create a List<\/b><\/h3>\n

To make sure your move goes smoothly, create a comprehensive to-do list and timeline beforehand. Go through any last details and make special arrangements for fragile items that need extra protection during transport.<\/span><\/p>\n

Cover Floors<\/b><\/h3>\n

As you ready yourself for the big move, take precautionary measures to protect hard-to-clean surfaces such as carpets. During winter months especially, movers may be bringing in snow or mud on their shoes, so covering floors with tarps or other coverings can help minimize the need for extra floor work post-moving day. It will save time and money and ensure that your home is clean and orderly!<\/span><\/p>\n

Make Way<\/b><\/h3>\n

It is essential to ensure your walkways are unobstructed. Take care of any snow that may have accumulated on the driveways or sidewalks, sprinkle salt to get rid of icy patches, and provide a smooth journey from your UNITS container to your door.<\/span><\/p>\n

Furniture<\/b><\/h3>\n

Disassemble any large pieces of furniture to prevent any loose elements from slipping out and breaking during transport. Remember to wrap up vulnerable parts like glass since they can be easily scratched along the way.<\/span><\/p>\n

Safety Pack<\/b><\/h3>\n

Moving when the temperature is cold can create hazardous road conditions. To protect your breakables from sliding during sudden stops, be sure you’ve packed boxes tightly with packing materials that are secure enough for the job.<\/span><\/p>\n

Pet Protection<\/b><\/h3>\n

When moving furniture and heavy items, it’s important to provide your pets with a comfortable space where they can’t get in the way. This will help reduce stress levels caused by constant disruptions. Make sure to give them enough food, water, and toys or blankets that have familiar smells so as to distract them from the chaos of a move! Don’t forget to consult your vet for more advice on how best to care for your pet during this difficult time.<\/span><\/p>\n

Stay Warm<\/b><\/h3>\n

Don’t let the cold weather stop you from making a winter move. To keep yourself and those helping you comfortable during transport, make sure to have an ample supply of hot drinks for everyone on board, plenty of gloves to protect hands from frigid temperatures, and even throw in a space heater into a bathroom, so there’s always somewhere warm available when needed!<\/span><\/p>\n
