How To Make Your Winter Move Go Smoothly
- Check the weather: In the winter, especially in Colorado, the weather can change at the drop of a hat. Make sure you are checking the weather leading up to the big moving day, to ensure you stay well prepared for anything mother nature decides to throw your way.
- Clear the snow: If it has recently snow make sure all walkways to the house are cleaned of snow. If you are moving close by it is a good idea to visit the home the day before the move and ensure that the house is easily accessible. You will also want to make sure there is space to park any vehicles & moving trucks.
- Dress in layers: The day of the move maybe a cold one, dress in layers so you can shed them if you being to overheat. Changing between constant hot and cold of indoors to outdoors can take a toll on you so be sure to regulate your body temperature.
