Moving Tip of the Week: Children & Pets

Moving day can be the most stressful day of the year for many tri-state families, and as your Cincinnati movers, our singular goal is remove that stress from the process for you. To help do so, here are a couple new tips to make your move as smooth as possible.

  • Before your moving day, it is an excellent idea to try to arrange for a family member, daycare, or babysitter to watch your children if under the age of 10. While we love kids, we never like to see children become hurt. Occasionally, children will escape their parents supervision and head straight for the moving truck. Whether they are playing on the ramp, inside the cab, or in the cargo area, a moving truck is never a safe place for a child to be. Children also have a tendency to accidentally block paths and stairwells while we're carrying your furniture, which can cause an accident to your child, your movers, or your belongings. Customers and their children are not permitted in the moving truck or container while we are working. Additionally, we are not responsible if an accident should occur because they were in the work area.
  • Pets can also sometimes pose a moving obstruction. As with children, it will be a good idea to find a petsitter on moving day. Some movers have mild allergies to cats or dogs while others may have more severe symptoms which can produce rashes and heavy sneezing. Some customers have also, on occasion, placed their pets in a room without making their movers aware. Once we opened the door, the animal makes a break for it. While no animal has ever been lost, we have seen a few escape their confines temporarily. Please be advised that Move Cheap is never responsible if a pet is lost. Additionally, we will not enter a household when an animal has an aggressive temperament. Many Petsmarts now offer a PetsHotel with Doggy Day Camp.
From all of us at the Move Cheap Cincinnati Movers, we hope your move is a great one!
