It is and exciting adventure whenever you get a new place. It could be for a new job, marriage, or a number of other reasons. There is something that all movers have in common though and that is they need to get the move done safely. Below are a few tips to help you have an injury free and accident-free move.<\/p>\n
1. Get Rid of Flammable Items Before the Move<\/p>\n
They are simply not worth the risk of bring them along. So lose the extra fireworks from the 4th<\/sup> of July and that half gallon of gas in that container or better yet pore it into your car.<\/p>\n 2. Wear Closed Toed Shoes on Moving Day<\/p>\n Yes, it might be hot out and you are going to do a lot of lifting but sandals are not a good way to stay cool. A box can drop crushing your toes and ruining your day while giving a nasty out of budget medical bill to go with it.<\/p>\n 3. Pace Yourself<\/p>\n It is important not to overly exert yourself. So when you plan give yourself some slack time in your schedule. Heat exhaustion and other injuries are a real threat.<\/p>\n 4. Proper Hydration and Nourishment<\/p>\n It is important to take care of yourself while you are doing all that lifting and hard work. A big part of that is to drink plenty of WATER (Not Soda) and have a healthy meal before you start. If you have help it would be nice of you to provide food.<\/p>\n 5. Use Your Legs When Lifting<\/p>\n Your legs are much stronger than your arms and more importantly your back. Injuring your back through unsafe lifting technics is a painful and expensive mistake.<\/p>\n 6. Update Your Homeowners or Renters Insurance<\/p>\n A new home or apartment means new things you need to consider with your insurance.
