Moving During the Summer Months

Planning around the weather is sometimes overlooked. Rescheduling may not be an option. What do you do? Luckily, there are some helpful things you can do to beat the weather as the summer months approach. Bringing with it, the humidity and rain. Hiring a Yarnall professional can be the solution to your worries.

Stay Hydrated

First and foremost, make sure you stay hydrated. Our movers know moving is no easy task, especially in the heat of summer. That’s why it is important to take breaks no matter the weather. Having enough fluids to ensure you do not dehydrate should be a major priority.

Extra, Extra

You can never have too much of something. If the weather is going to be hot and humid, make sure to bring an extra shirt along. Even an extra hat, which can help protect your face from the sun. Having enough sunscreen to protect the skin that will be visible during your move will go a long way as well. If the weather is going to be wet and rainy, it will be smart to bring an extra pair of socks or shoes.

Protect What You Can

If the weather is going to be rainy it is nice to protect your belongings. Yarnall provides moving pads to help protect your stuff when loading and unloading. This can help protect your floor/carpet in your new place. This will alleviate everything from getting wet or muddy. Our professionals ensure to wrap up your furniture, such as your bed and sofa in plastic to better protect it from getting wet.

Be Proactive

It’s important that you care for certain sensitive items. For instance, electronics may be susceptible to heat. If exposed to the heat for too long you may find items damaged. On the contrary, items that get wet during your move could suffer the same thing. Make sure to communicate this with one of our professionals to ensure the proper care of your items.

Get Ahead of the Curve

The summertime is peak season for moving companies. Many are booked a month out or even more. Make sure to plan accordingly and not wait until the last minute to start the process. If you are planning on moving during this time, it’s a good idea to start to think about these sorts of things before marketing your home.
