Moving can be a stressful experience, and with summer right around the corner, the heat is another added annoyance you must factor into your moving process. Summers in Arizona can get up to 120°F, and proper precautions must be taken to stay safe in the brutal heat.
Here are five tips for moving during an Arizona summer!
Hot weather and strenuous activity like moving can make you sweat. Make sure you replenish what your body loses by drinking lots of fluids. Take time to drink enough water and stay hydrated. You’ll feel a lot better and avoid making the kinds of mistakes that dehydration causes. Ensure your drinking cups are accessible, or get disposable cups or water bottles if your kitchenware is packed away. Don’t forget to eat something, too!
Clothes aren’t likely to get damaged if they sit in the sun for several hours. On the other hand, perishable food items, electronics, and some other possessions won’t fare very well if you leave them in a sweltering car for too long. Label the boxes that need to stay cool, and minimize their exposure to heat.
Your pets don’t enjoy being overheated anymore than you do. Have a plan to keep them cool and out of harm’s way. It may be easiest to board your pets or have someone else watch them, so you don’t have to worry about them while you’re moving.
It is important to know the signs of your body suffering from heat exhaustion. Some signs include:
· Elevated body temperature
· Headaches
· Nausea
· Dizziness
· Confusion
· Cramps
· Weakness
If you start to notice any of these symptoms, drink some cold water and lie down. You may even want to take a cold shower or apply cold towels to your face and neck. Even if you do everything right, your body may get too hot from a long day of hauling boxes and furniture in the sun, so be extra cautious.
Arizona summers are hottest during the middle of the afternoon, so you can skip the most brutal weather by getting started as early as possible. Get most of the heavy lifting done early in the morning so you can spend the hot afternoon enjoying the air conditioning and getting things organized in your new space.
