Moving during the holiday season can feel overwhelming. Between spending time with family, winter weather, and other commitments, it’s easy for stress to build quickly. But with the right plan and the right moving team, you can keep the season merry and the move manageable.
Whether you’re relocating across town or across the country, here are a few expert tips from our team to help your holiday move go smoothly:
1. Book Your Move Early
The holidays are a busy time for many families and moving companies. Schedules fill up fast, so securing your preferred moving date early gives you more flexibility and peace of mind.
2. Pack a Clearly Marked “Open First” Box
Keep your holiday essentials. Décor, gifts, chargers, medications, and cold-weather gear in one box that’s labeled clearly. This ensures you have everything you need right away without digging through stacks of boxes.
3. Be Prepared for Winter Conditions
Snow, ice, and freezing temperatures can change a moving day quickly. Make sure walkways are salted, driveways are clear, with shovels, jackets and gloves near by. Your moving crew will appreciate the preparation, and it’ll help keep everyone safe.
4. Safely Disconnect Holiday Décor
If your home is already decorated, take your time removing lights, trees, and displays before packing. Wrap fragile ornaments carefully and secure cords to prevent damage or tangles.
5. Keep Warm Drinks Handy
Hot cocoa, tea, or coffee can make a big difference for the whole family, especially during loading and unloading. A small warm-up break can go a long way during a winter move!
