The ice has thawed. The trees are blooming. Your crews are probably swapping out their coats for hoodies. That can only mean one thing – it’s time to get ready for summer!

As a mover, there are 3 important items you need to get squared away now, so that you don’t need to worry about it during the summer rush.

Tis the season... to be busy!

1) Get training materials ready

Your success or failure is determined by your employees. If you have any tweaks you want to make to your training program, now’s the time to do it! Start training now, and you will have excess talent by the time you need it most.

2) Stock up on supplies

Packing supplies, shoe covers, uniforms – you don’t want to run out in July, when you’ll have more pressing matters to attend to! Now would be a great time to check in with your employee in charge of supplies, just to confirm that you have everything you need for the sudden jump in business.
