Moving day is not for the weak, so your outfit definitely shouldn’t be either. Wearing the wrong shoes or uncomfortable clothes can make or break your moving experience. When it comes to moving, we have a closet full of tricks for you. Prepare for your move by knowing what not to wear and what to wear for the big day.
What Not to Wear During Your Move
What you wear on moving day matters more than you think. Remember, moving isn’t glamorous. You will be lifting heavy objects and getting dirty so moving day is not the time to bring out the stilettos or your grandma’s fur coat. A good rule of thumb is: if you don’t want to ruin it, don’t wear it. Stay away from:
- High Heels
- Open toe shoes
- Uncomfortable shoes
- Brand new tennis shoes
- Jewelry
- Your favorite clothes
- Expensive Items
Fashionistas Don’t Despair
Of course, if you don’t want your outfit to suffer just because you’re moving, there is always Moving Help. Moving Help easily finds movers ready to help with all your moving day needs such as: packing unpacking, loading, unloading and even cleaning. Now, you can move safely knowing your red bottoms will still be in tact once you’ve made it to your new home.
What to Wear During Your Move
- Comfortable clothes: A plain t-shirt and a pair of comfortable jeans is the perfect outfit for moving.
- Season appropriate clothes: If it’s winter throw on a jacket, moving when it’s too cold to function will slow you down in the long run. In the summer make sure to wear breathable clothes, so you can beat the heat.
- Dispensable Clothes: Moving can get messy, stay ahead of the game by wearing something that you don’t mind getting rid of once the move is over.
- Work gloves: A good pair of gloves will help protect your wrists and hands from getting cut up.
