Is Your Moving Day Weather-Proof?

You’ve done everything right in planning a successful moving day: gathering packing supplies and moving boxes, organizing your family’s belongings and settling on a convenient moving date. But what happens if moving day brings something unexpected? Rain, wind, ice and other weather can really put a damper on your moving day plans, but not to worry! All My Sons Moving & Storage is prepared for DFW’s unpredictable weather.

Our Dallas movers are always ready and willing to act fast to protect your belongings from the elements. Whether it’s making sure your belongings are covered in waterproof materials or taking extra care while moving during a windy day, All My Sons will take care of your move no matter what the weatherman says.
If a stormy forecast has you down, here are some things you can do to protect your belongings before moving day:

1) Avoid stacking your moving boxes near the front or back door on a humid or rainy day. Cracks around the door frame, especially at the bottom, can leak humidity into your home and dampen cardboard boxes.
2) Make sure your moving boxes and packing supplies are new. Used boxes are weaker and may not hold up during a downpour. Consider asking your Dallas movers for reusable, plastic bins to protect your belongings from the elements during a move.
3) Cover hardwood or tile entryways with a non-bunching covering if rain is in the forecast. Wet, hard floors and Dallas movers carrying heavy loads of your belongings are a bad combination!

With these tips and some help from your Dallas movers of All My Sons Moving & Storage, your moving day plans will be a success!

Having the boxes in the correct room they go in is half the problem solved when moving. You won't have to make multiple trips through your new home to find all the boxes that are to go in the upstairs bathroom. Have the boxes for each room stacked together, in order for them all to go on the moving truck together. This will make it easier to move the boxes into the correct new rooms in the new home too. The use of smaller boxes will keep breakable items from getting damaged if you use plenty of packing material around them.
