Summer Is Approaching and So Is National Moving Month

The fine month of May brings many different things, but very few people know that the month of May has been officially called national moving month. This claim was made by the American Moving and Storage Association. People that are looking for a mover may just find that the month of May will bring them the best prices. Movers all over the country are gearing up for national moving month. They are slashing prices and launching great deals every single day during the month of May. It is time to try and get into the spirit of moving and nothing motivates people quite like good prices.

Why May

Traditionally Summer has always been the busiest time of the year for moving companies. May kicks off the moving season. More people move in the warm Summer months than any other time of the year. It only makes sense that moving companies would take full advantage of this situation. People that are anxious to move will become even more anxious to get things done if they see that there is a special deal going on, and for those people that are undecided, a special deal will help them make up their minds much quicker.

Keeping it cool during a Summer move

Summer may be the busiest time of the year for movers and the moving companies, but you will have to keep things cool. Too much time in the heat can literally wear you out faster than you may anticipate. Here are some tips that will help you keep everything cool during a warm Summer move.

Moving can be stressful. Moving in the heat can make things even worse. The only way to battle stress and heat is to make sure that you have plenty to drink. Staying hydrated will help you cope with the heat and the liquid will also help your body deal with the stress better. The human body is made up of about 60% water. When that level starts to drop, the human body does not function normally. The first thing to go is clear thinking which can make stressful situations even worse. Make sure that you and everyone else that is moving stays hydrated.

Dress lightly

You will not be dealing with the Winter cold anymore, so there is no need to wear those warm boring Winter clothes. You need to make sure that you dress lightly. If you are doing a lot of the moving work yourself, then lighter clothes will make everything a lot easier. You don’t want to sweat out all of your water in the first few minutes of moving. You need to conserve it.

Conserve your energy

Not only will you have to conserve your water, but you will also need to conserve your energy. Take everything nice and easy. The heat can really suck all of the energy and strength right from your body. If you start the move at full blast, you will run out of steam before all of the work is done.these are just a few ways to keep your cool during the warmer Summer months.
