Hot Moves!

The movers are coming, the movers are coming! Or at least that’s what you will be yelling this weekend. Why you ask? Well Saturday, June 24 and Sunday, June 25, is TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® busiest move weekend with more than 5,500 moves during these two-days. Don’t be alarmed by our hordes of moving trucks rushing about the Atlanta area, in fact feel free to wave at our amazing movers or tag us in pictures! In the meantime, here are some not so heat friendly items to think twice about before packing in your summer move.

Things To Think about in the Heat:

Candles can make your new home smell welcoming, inviting and cozy! Packing them in the summer can lead to a box dripping in wax, which is never fun to clean. Try taking these items in your personal vehicle. They will not melt, no chance of them breaking, and ease of access for when you get to your new place!

CD’s, videos and cassettes are more things to keep in your personal vehicle. I know, in the day and age with all the technology in the world at our fingertips why worry about these items? As MOVERS WHO CARE we know how much more valuable these items can be. A tape of your parents first dance, your daughters 5^th birthday party, and so many more memories have been documented. So please pack those with you as well, preferably not next to the candles but still in a safe place away from the heat.

Air-conditioning aka AC. There’s going to be a lot of foot traffic inside and outside of your home. That means lots of open doors. This can cost a pretty penny if your air conditioner is running for hours on end. More importantly make sure that the electricity is turned on in your new home if it’s going to be hot there too.

2017 Movers for Moms Atlanta

Your Atlanta movers are proud to benefit ITP non-profits, charities and shelters who are making a difference in our community. Giving back is close to our hearts!

We’re glad to have helped raise awareness against domestic violence. Your motivated Atlanta movers are excited to start another cause-initiative in the fall. Stay tuned for more details :]
