    It’s a Hot Market – Literally!

    The dog days of summer are here — and it is hot in most of the country.

    When you move in the summer it is helpful to take the heat into consideration.  Here are a few tips to help plan a summertime move:

    1. Plan ahead — have a move plan to make your move go smoothly and quickly.  Try to pre-pack as much as you can before move day and select a mid-month move day (if possible) to have more flexibility and fresher move crews
    2. Start early — schedule your movers early in the morning and try to get the heavier items loaded before the summer mid-day sun gets too hot
    3. Know your route — avoid traffic that might keep slow you and your moving truck down in the summer heat
    4. Stay indoors — be mindful of the heat and try to move outdoor items in the early morning, prepare an indoor move staging area, and minimize the time movers have to spend in the hot sun.
    5. Use your utilities – you may want to run the air conditioner a bit more than usual to account for movement, more body heat, and open doors. And if possible, turn on the AC at destination before the movers arrive.
    6. A few fans  — a few well-placed fans can help keep the move work area cooler
    7. Mind your items – the heat and sun and affect perishables, electronics and other household items – so try to minimize the time they are left outside while loading the truck.
    8. Stay hydrated – most important, have lots of water and other hydrating beverages, fruit, and snacks to make sure that you and your move crew stay hydrated and have energy.  A well hydrated move crew will be able to work better through the heat and you can  help avoid any heat related mishaps.

    Beat the heat with a cool move – call Carey Moving for all of professional moving advice.

    We are settled in, and have time to consider how easily the move was from Vonore, TN to Lansing, MI.The move not nearly as hectic as we thought it would be, this is in part due to the excellent performance by your people, namely Justin Schott the group leader. Justin had a handle on the entire move. Justin’s concerns were that the items be handled carefully and that they be placed where the client wanted them. Tim and Xavier are fine gentlemen, they too had the same concerns as Justin. Cody and Joe did their best to pack our goods so as to have little damage.The named are a credit to the Carey Moving Company. We are happy that we named you folks to do our transfer, thank you.

    Pat-As mentioned we have not fully unpacked yet so hopefully all things are here. Other than that confirmation, the fellows who moved us were extremely courteous and mannerly. Much appreciated. They were very careful about not scratching the walls. They were also careful to ask where items should be placed. They arrived on time for delivery.

    I would like the manager of the Arden office to know that the staff that handled our move into your storage facility was superb. Kim explained everything very clearly up front and there were no nasty surprises thereafter. Brian bossed the packing day and the loading day with ease and grace and I cannot tell you how relieved I was to know I was in good hands. The others, Lori, Doug, Tom, and Bob were also very good at what they do. Thank you. I look forward to delivery as soon as we find a place. Thank you.

    I received my shipment on Sunday Feb 23rd. All items were in perfect shape. It was a great experience working with your company. Patrick was very helpful and knowledgeable. Being that I was in South Carolina for a very short time, he succeeded in getting everything set up in a timely manner to be packed and put on the truck. The packers were very nice and efficient and obviously packed items very well. The driver was thoughtful and called me several times to assure me that my items were on the way. He was friendly and efficient when he dropped off the boxes. You were very kind and helpful every time I called with a question and quickly handled all the paperwork.Please pass on our thanks and appreciation to all the people involved in the transport of our items.
