At Ark Relocation in Milton Keynes, we understand the unpredictability of UK weather and its potential impact on your house removal experience. Our team is equipped to handle the challenges of moving in any weather condition, ensuring your move is smooth and stress-free.

Prepare for Success

Dress for the Occasion: We advise wearing waterproof clothing and shoes suitable for rain or snow. Layering your clothes allows you to adapt to changing conditions throughout the day.

Stay Informed: On the day of your move, check the latest weather and traffic updates. Remember, in extreme weather conditions like storms or heavy snow, safety comes first, and rescheduling might be necessary​

Protecting Your Belongings

Effective Packing: To keep your items safe if packing yourself, wrap your clothes in plastic bags or place in tghtly sealed lay flat cartons. Use securely sealed wardrobe cartons for hanging garments. Ensure all boxes are securely taped along all edges to withstand moisture​.

Specialised Equipment: Ark Relocation provides high-quality protectors for your delicate items like TVs and sofas, as well as padded blankets for extra protection during transit​

The Day of the Move

Teamwork with a Strategy: We divide the moving team into indoor and outdoor groups to minimise indoor mess. This approach is especially effective in wet conditions​

Floor Protection: We protect your old and new homes’ flooring by laying down floor protection. This simple step can prevent damage and additional cleaning​

​​Snow Day Precautions: If you’re moving in snowy conditions, clear and salt pathways in advance. Keep shovels ready and ensure warm drinks are available for everyone involved​

Insurance and Safety

Insurance is Key: We recommend having comprehensive insurance coverage for your move, particularly in adverse weather conditions, where the risk of accidents is higher​

Safety Measures: Wear appropriate gear, including gloves and rubber boots. We often use cardboard  to create safe walkways and prevent slipping​

Other advice

Immediate Cleaning Tips: Keep a box of cleaning supplies handy for quick clean-ups. This is crucial in maintaining the condition of both properties​

Staying Warm during the move: In colder weather, use a portable heater in one room to create a warm space, saving energy while keeping comfortable​
