There are few things in life that are improved by a rainy day and moving day is one of them. If you have already scheduled the movers, then you are just going to have to make the most of it. Make sure you have extra large trash bags and furniture covers. Protect your floor with towels, and if boxes do end up getting wet, make sure to support the bottom as wet cardboard tears easily. You will also want to remove those boxes from your home as soon as possible to avoid mildew.
Key Takeaways:
- If you are moving on a rainy day, be sure to buy plenty of trash bags to protect your blankets, furniture, and knick-knacks.
- Make sure your movers pull their truck up as close to the entrance of your home as possible to avoid carrying anything long distances in the rain.
- If your boxes happen to get wet, take the items out once you get to your new home right away to avoid mold growth.
