Rain and the
season of monsoons always bring mixed feelings. The reaction to rain varies
with every person. For some it is happiness, for others it might mean freshness
and life. A rainy season means that you need tackle the muddy roads, stagnant
water and the wetness. In a developing country, the problems are more because
of the lack of infrastructure. Your problems can get compounded by the issues
caused by rain. But the usual advice of not to relocate during the rainy season
will not stand good for sudden plans and unavoidable situations. When there is
a possibility of planning the timing of move, great care should be taken to
choose a hassle free season. The choice of time when it is beyond our control
there is little that could be done. We have to face the difficulties in
relocating during the monsoons.
An effort to
tackle the problems of moving our house during monsoons will have to be started
from clear planning. Every difficulty which could arise could be nullified with
some planned approach. So it is important to be aware of the problems which
could arise. A measure in place to counter the problems will be of great
importance.
What are the
prospective roadblocks in relocation during monsoons?
- The things getting exposed to moisture and become unusable
- Difficulty in obtaining a carrier vehicle
- Inability to co-ordinate the move
- Complications in unloading
- Possibility of delay due to rain
A clear planning can help in making
things better, even if we happen to face the problem of rain.
State of the art packing techniques
and best packing materials are very important to keep the consignment safe. A
well-packed consignment is very less likely to be get degenerated by getting
exposed to moisture. If the packing and moving company uses good packing
materials the safeguard of the items packed would be more or less guaranteed. A
lackluster packing material or wrong packing method may sometimes create
negative impact.
A relocation company which has all
resources and provides wholesome services will not make you face a problem of
obtaining a carrier vehicle. They will be able to provide with prompt and
proper service to their clients. When the weather condition is not favourable
it may not be easy to get the services of a carrier vehicle. The lack of
availability usually escalates the cost and may even lead to situation when we
have to settle down for below-par services or even the company demanding above
the quote.
Experience, reputation, reliability
and International exposure of the service provider would be a huge benefit for
the customer because when handling a tricky situation such as rain the
company’s efficiency will be put to real test. A rainy season can result in a
situation where it is not possible to have a smooth flow of packing and moving.
There will be various problems in obtaining the services of labourers,
organizing them to be on time and coordinating with carrier vehicle. A small
confusion can create difficulties in providing an easy and seamless move. It is
prerogative to have complete co-ordination from the company’s side to make the
move hassle-free.
Skilled and well-trained crews are
strength of any relocation company. Skill and training can be very helpful in unfavourable
conditions. It is impossible to instruct the crew on the spot about how to
handle an unexpected situation. So proper training of the crew becomes a
prerogative. A spell of showers can turn
unloading into very tricky part of moving. There are many factors to be thought
about when unloading after showers. Protecting the items from getting wet, safe
handling and carefully maneuvering the slippery surfaces should make the move
event-less. A team of trained labourers
can handle these problem in a very efficient manner and also be able to identify
situations where there will be a requirement to hold back the operations.
‘Show me your friend, I will say what
kind of person you are’ is a saying. If it’s a friend for a person, it’s a
warehouse for a relocation company. The ability of a company to maintain the
warehouse defines best the company. A delay is always on cards when things are being
planned in a rainy season and a relocation company with a good relocation
facility will easily overcome this roadblock. When thinking about packing and
moving we may not think much about the warehouses of the company, but there is
a crisis situation and moving cannot be done at that moment warehousing
facilities become imperative.
A clear planning and thought process should go
into the process of moving. How could the moving process be continued in spite
of rain and if it turns out to be impossible to proceed with the move what are
actions which should done? These need to be thought out before, so that there
will no surprises and any situation can be effectively tackled. Any doubt about
the packing and moving should be discussed with the surveyor who is assigned
for your move.
