The Heat Is On
Summer is peak moving season — and in Florida, it’s also the hottest. High humidity and blazing sun can make your move challenging if you’re not prepared. Here’s how to stay cool and move efficiently.
Start Early in the Day
Schedule your move for early morning when temperatures are lower. DeVries Moving crews are used to beating the Florida heat and often begin moves as early as 7 a.m. to maximize comfort and safety.
Stay Hydrated
Keep bottled water and electrolyte drinks handy for you and the movers. Avoid caffeine or alcohol, which can dehydrate you quickly.
Protect Heat-Sensitive Items
Electronics, candles, and artwork can warp or melt in high heat. Pack these in climate-controlled containers or transport them in your air-conditioned vehicle.
Dress Smart & Use Sun Protection
Wear light, breathable fabrics and sunscreen. Don’t underestimate how long you’ll be outdoors during loading and unloading.
Make your summer move smooth and sweat-free. DeVries Moving keeps you and your belongings cool from start to finish.
