7 Tips for Executing a Successful Summer Move

7 Tips for Executing a Successful Summer Move

Summer is perhaps the most popular time of year to move in the Twin Cities, which means moving companies are in high demand. In fact, approximately 70% of all relocation occurs between Memorial Day and Labor Day.

Start Planning Early

Because summer is such a popular time to move, you’ll want to start planning your move at least a couple of months in advance.

Wear the Appropriate Attire

If the weather forecast says your move day is going to be a scorcher, plan your attire appropriately. Wear loose-fitting, breathable, lightweight clothing.

Don’t Forget to Turn on the Utilities!

Plan to turn on the utilities in your new home before your scheduled move day.

Protect Your Belongings from Heat Damage

  • Electronic devices
  • Antiques or precious valuables
  • Artwork
  • Musical instruments
  • Toiletries and makeup
  • DVDs, records, CDs, and cassette tapes

Pack a Cooler

Pack a full day’s supply of bottled water so you can stay well hydrated throughout the day.

Consider Using Portable Fans

To help boost airflow and keep yourself and your movers comfortable, consider situating portable fans throughout your new house.

Heat Exhaustion: Know the Signs

  • Headaches
  • Dizziness
  • Weakness
  • Muscle cramps
  • General confusion
  • Elevated body temperature
