Top Tips For A Safe Winter Move
Protect your family and belongings from winter storms. Our tips will help you move safely during the coldest months of the year.
Roll Out The Carpet
Before movers arrive, clear a walkway from your home to the truck. This will help keep them safe while carrying items by removing leaves, salt, snow, or ice that could cause them to slip. At You Move Me, we also roll out old carpet outside of the house and on truck ramps to create an additional slip-free pathway.
Pack Securely
Products should be packed securely and placed in boxes that will easily hold their weight to prevent damage. If items are fragile, bubble wrap, newspaper, butcher’s paper or moving blankets can provide extra protection. It is also important to insulate your goods so the elements don’t ruin pricey or priceless items, including electronics which are susceptible to frost and moisture. Cold elements can weaken glass and plastic items, while condensation can damage wood finishes, electronics, and antiques. Even wood glue will become sensitive to heat fluctuations.
Protect Your Floors
If you live in an area with a colder climate, chances are that you're familiar with the mud, snow, and rain. But did you know that these outside elements can easily be brought into your home when people are coming in and out during a move? The best way to protect your floors is by securing non-slip covers over them - cardboard or plastic sheets with grip work well.
Have The Clothes Fit The Part
Wear shoes that are both comfortable and protect your feet on moving day. Opt for clothing pieces that you can easily add or remove as needed. Accessories like hand warmers will also come in handy.
Take Your Time
plan to take extra time whenever you move in the snow or rain so that you can avoid risks such as falls and injuries, which could also damage your belongings. It might cost a bit more or add some delays, but it's always better to be cautious.
