6 TIPS FOR MOVING IN COLD WEATHER

Moving in winter weather is less than desirable for most people.

While we all wish for comfortable, temperate weather on moving day, that’s not always possible.

Whether it’s a last-minute move or a planned relocation that happens to fall on a frigid day, there are many circumstances that require moving in the cold.
Here are six tips that will help you make the most of your cold-weather move - and stay safe in the process:

Prepare the Way
Ice or snow can put a serious damper on your day when moving. Keep it from creating safety concerns by shoveling or salting your driveway or parking lot before setting off for the day.

Heat Things Up
Will your new location be comfortably warm by the time you arrive? Ensure that it will by turning up the heat beforehand.

Pack Accordingly for the Weather
Some items may be sensitive to heat or cold. Pack these carefully and insulate them properly. Also consider bringing them along in a temperature-controlled area like the cabin of your moving van or your car.

Dress for the Weather
While preparing your belongings for the winter weather, don’t forget to prepare yourself! You will be in and out of the cold during your move, so be sure to dress in layers that are easy to pile on and remove accordingly.

Protect Your Floors
Snow, ice, and other winter weather can damage your floors. Whether you have hardwoods or carpet in your new location, protect it to prevent damage and lessen potential cleanup later.

Hire an Experienced Pro
When all else fails, it pays to partner with a pro during your move - especially for winter moves. The experienced professionals at DFW Fireman Movers have the expertise you need to ensure safe and swift winter moving - no matter the weather.
When it has to get done regardless of winter’s chill, contact the pros at Fireman Movers. Once you get settled in your warm, new space, you’ll be glad you trusted the very best with your move!

I just want to say thank you! Your guys are awesome! I’ve had this crew on one of our previous moves and they are great. They’re careful and respectful. Honestly, I hope this is my last move for a long time, but if we move again you are my go to guys.

I wanted to reach out and thank you and your crew for the help and work they did in my move. Your guys were professional and very positive throughout the whole move. They really put me at ease and what I thought would be very frustrating day was a good experience. They were very careful and treated my stuff with great care. When they arrived I felt we were maybe not as packed and organized as we should have been but they helped get it together and packed on the truck. I was so glad it went so smooth. Please thank the crew and please use us as a reference as we are a happy customer. My daughter had used you and we were glad she gave us your number.
