Winter realities to plan around

Moving in cold weather requires a few extra precautions. Bekins recommends clearing walkways, protecting floors, and keeping pathways ice-free—smart steps whether you’re loading in Hailey, Ketchum, or right in Sun Valley. For electronics, allow time to acclimate and consider climate-conscious handling. Bekins+1

Pro tip: If your timeline edges into October/November, start de-cluttering and packing seasonally—Bekins’ fall checklists suggest letting go of summer items to save on volume and cost. Bekins
