Winter in NYC can be enchanting, but a winter move presents its own set of challenges. White Glove Moving, your trusted residential movers, brings you strategies to navigate the cold and ensure a smooth winter relocation.
Early Planning is Key
Winter moves require meticulous planning. White Glove Moving recommends starting the planning process early to account for potential weather-related delays and to secure the best moving dates. Factor in shorter daylight hours and plan accordingly to optimize daylight during the move.
Weather-Resistant Packing
Cold temperatures and potential precipitation call for weather-resistant packing. Our residential movers utilize sturdy packing materials to protect your belongings from the winter elements. Ensure that fragile items are packed with extra care to prevent damage in case of temperature fluctuations.
Professional Loading and Unloading
Handling heavy furniture and navigating icy sidewalks can be risky. Our team of professionals is trained to handle winter conditions, ensuring a safe and efficient loading and unloading process. We take extra precautions to avoid slips and falls, using appropriate footwear and equipment.
