There are certain times when life can hit you square in the gut, sometimes it may even feel more like a low blow. Yes, unfortunately there are times in everyone’s life when the thought goes through your head, “Now what? Where do I go from here? How am I going to make the best of this situation?” I am sure if you or any member of your family has been a flood victim, you know exactly how this feels. Although storage may not solve all of your immediate problems, there are some ways in which storage can help salvage a few positives out of an incredibly difficult situation.

You’ve packed and planned. Your family and friends have agreed to help you move on a certain date. You have to be out of your apartment or home by a certain date, and changing your move is not an option. Moving day arrives, and with it, comes inclement weather. So what do you do if all your moving reservations and help are set, but the forecast is less than perfect for your big move? The answer to that question will vary, depending on the nature of the weather, and the potential safety risks posed to you or the individuals helping you to move. Realistically, certain weather scenarios will pose less of a threat than others, and it is always wise to use caution first. For moves that unfortunately fall on rainy days, there is hope for you to still complete your move.
