Winter moves require extra planning and precautions. Check weather forecasts and have backup dates ready. Clear driveways and walkways of snow and ice before the movers arrive. Protect your floors with drop cloths or cardboard to prevent tracking in snow and salt. Pack a winter emergency kit with warm clothing, blankets, and hot beverages. Ensure your new home has heat and utilities turned on before moving day. Consider the safety of your movers and provide a warm space for breaks. Some items, like electronics and musical instruments, are sensitive to extreme cold – discuss special handling with your movers.
