Avoiding Bad Luck While Moving With These TipsIf you’re the superstitious type, listen up! When you move, the potential for bad luck is all around you. I mean, just think of all the mirrors you can break or the ladders you can walk under. Avoiding bad luck while moving is a step below avoiding laser detection, but no worries, I can help.

Mirrors

Seven years is a long time to live with bad luck and I don’t know about you, but I rather not live like that. The best way to avoid breaking your mirrors is by packing them like the pros do. Your best option is to buy a mirror box that includes all of the packing supplies needed to secure the mirror.

Driving

If you have to drive your moving truck past a graveyard, make sure to hold your breath. It’s a sign of respect for the dead and you certainly don’t want to upset the dead!

Ladders

Here’s the deal: Don’t walk under them! If you’re using them during your move make sure you’re aware of their location. Or just avoid using them all together by inviting your tallest friend to help.
