Moving With Pets: Helpful Tips for a Successful Relocation
Whether you have just a single pet or many, moving with animals can be a challenge. Pets are generally sensitive to commotion and changes in their surroundings, both of which are inevitable during a relocation.
At Ace Moving & Warehousing, we’ve been moving Twin Cities families since 1958, and in that time, we worked with thousands of pet owners. To help you move your pets as smoothly as possible, we’ve listed some helpful tips below.
Don’t Count on Your Movers to Transport Your Pet
Professional movers and packers cannot transport pets, so it’s up to you to arrange a safe and comfortable means of transportation for your animal friend.
Prepare Your Pet for Your Relocation
In the days leading up to your move, do your best to maintain your pet’s normal routine even if you’re busy and stressed.
Tips for Transporting Your Pet
If you’re planning a local move and you have enough room in your car or truck, transport your pet inside your vehicle.
