Moving to a new home is always thrilling and fun. However, if you want to relocate during the COVID-19 pandemic, you must exercise extreme caution to prevent the sickness from spreading. From sanitising potential touchpoints to adhering to social distancing guidelines, take all necessary precautions on the day of the move and proceed with caution to ensure a smooth and stress-free transition.
The following are the top five ideas for a stress-free house relocation during the COVID-19 crisis:
When it comes to hiring services, be cautious.
Everything has altered since the COVID-19 breakout. Because the virus can rapidly spread from a contaminated surface or an infected person, it's critical to know how well the logistical services you choose are prepared. Inquire about their sanitization procedures and safeguards performed throughout the logistical transfer by calling them. Inquire, for example, if the specialists will bring their masks, gloves, boots, and sanitization kits on the day of the relocation, as well as how many personnel will be needed in the procedure.
Virtual survey.
In the pre-COVID-19 era, a service provider would conduct a house tour in person; however, this is no longer the case. Because the government encourages people to stay indoors and preserve social distance, a video conference is the best approach to conduct a house survey and discuss the estimate. Furthermore, it reduces the surveyor's trip time and costs. Virtual visits have also been more popular in recent years, as they reduce physical touch and the danger of infection.
Disinfect and clean the house.
At both ends, precautionary steps and complete sanitization are required. Because experts have sanitization equipment, you should likewise sanitise potential threat places in your home, such as doorknobs, doors, windows, tables, kitchen slabs, chairs, lights, and switches. To provide a risk-free environment for professionals, clean and disinfect the home. Also, once the relocation is complete, ask the service providers to wash their hands often.
Maintain a six-foot distance.
Maintain a six-foot separation between the workers during the packing, loading, and unloading processes. Throughout the shifting process, wear masks, gloves, and face shields, and wash your hands frequently. If there are children or anyone who are vulnerable in the house, keep them in a separate room. Also, make sure the house is well-ventilated. Adjust the temperature of the air conditioner or keep the windows and doors open.
Before you begin unpacking, disinfect your new house.
In addition to cleaning and disinfecting your furniture and other things, place all packing materials in a separate room to avoid human contact. Coronavirus can survive for up to 24 hours on cardboard and 72 hours on plastic, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). As a result, it's critical to properly dispose of cardboard boxes and plastics. If possible, leave them untouched for three days on the terrace/balcony or in the open space before discarding.
