Fall can be one of the best times to move, but it also comes with its own set of weather challenges. From chilly mornings and windy afternoons to unexpected rain showers, the season can be unpredictable. Preparing ahead ensures your move stays on track, no matter what the forecast brings.
First, keep an eye on the weather in the week leading up to your move. If rain is in the forecast, stock up on plastic tarps, waterproof bins, and extra moving blankets to protect your belongings. Cardboard boxes can weaken in damp conditions, so double tape the bottoms or use plastic totes for heavier items.
Dress in layers and wear sturdy shoes with good traction. Fall days can start off cold and warm up quickly, and the right footwear helps prevent slips on wet leaves or damp ground. Keep towels and doormats handy to reduce tracking water or mud into your new home.
Finally, allow extra time in your moving schedule. Weather delays happen, and flexibility will make the process less stressful.
