1. Use a professional moving company in Toronto. 
Moving during the winter has its benefits
because this time of year tends to be the off
season for movers.

As such, you have more flexibility with date
ranges to choose from, as well as alternative
dates, should the weather not cooperate.

2. Protect your floors during move out and move
in processes-Talk to your mover to see if they
provide floor runners for putting down over the
floors and carpeting. If not, you can pick these
up from a hardware/home improvement store.

3. Monitor weather reports the week of your
move-Watch the long range forecast for
expected winter storms. If it looks like there
will be an extreme amount of snow that could
close roads, reschedule your move.

4. Turn your heat down on moving day Theres
no reason to have your furnace constantly run as
the movers are carrying items out of your old
home or into your new one.

You can turn on a small space heater in one of
the bathrooms and shut the door, so you have
somewhere warm to retreat to, plus your movers
will enjoy the warmth when they need a bathroom
break!

5. Be prepared for changes in the weather -
 Confirm with the moving company to see if
they will provide extra furniture pads and covers
in the event the weather changes and it starts
raining or snowing.

6. Pack snow shovels and salt last You may
need to clear the walkway at your new home, so
you want to make sure they go onto the truck last.

your move The last thing you want to do is
have to move into a new home without any heat or
electricity.

8. Board your pets on moving day For local
moves, drop your pets off at a friends or board
them so they stay warm and will not get underfoot
during the moving process.

recommended to unpack electronics, do not plug
them in, and let them sit for at least 24-hours
