Moving Tip of the Week: We Love Pets!

At the Move Cheap® Cincinnati Movers, we love our pets! We know you love your pets too, and to help your move go as smoothly as possible, here are a few tips concerning our furry, feathered, and scaly family members:

• During the duration of your move, keep your animals in a crate or designated room that is off limits to your movers. Nothing could be worse or more dangerous than a mover opening a door to a room to have a dog or cat run out and then make it's way outside.
  

• Please keep your pets out of the way of your movers. When pets are left free to roam the home during a move, there is always the potential for an animal to inadvertently get under the legs of a mover or movers as they are carrying your furniture and possessions. This is bad for both the movers, your pet(s), and your items.

• Remember that moving can be stressful for animals too! Try to keep your pet's routine as regular as possible throughout the entire moving process. On your actual moving day, it is in some situations better for a pet to be taken to a friends home, a kennel, or a doggy day care until your move has been completed. Then they can come home to be acquainted to their new surroundings. Be sure to give them their favorite snacks and toys!
  

• Before moving, be sure to take a recent picture of your pet in the event that it runs away, as well as having all of your pet's documents and licensing handy. Check to see if there are any pet laws that differ from where you currently live, and be sure to have a new vet assigned if you aren't moving locally.

• If you have a special needs pet, or are moving long distance, you may want to consider using a pet moving service like TLC.

If you love your pets as much as we do, then you know that their safety and well being can only be 1st rate!

From all of us at the Move Cheap® Cincinnati Movers, we hope your move is a great one!
