But before you hit the road, a little planning can make your seasonal move smoother, easier, and stress-free. At Big Burns Moving , we specialize in helping snowbirds settle into Florida homes comfortably — from Tampa Bay to Clearwater, Sarasota, Naples, and beyond.
Before the Move: Plan Like a Pro
Choose your timing wisely: Avoid peak holiday travel when roads are busy. Late fall or early winter offers ideal weather for your Florida arrival.
Downsize and declutter: If your move is seasonal, you don’t need to bring everything. Make a list of essentials (clothes, kitchen items, electronics) and store the rest safely.
Hire Florida-based movers: Choose a reliable company familiar with local conditions. Big Burns Moving understands Florida neighborhoods, gated communities, and parking challenges — making your move seamless.
Prep for humidity: Florida’s climate is very different from northern states. Protect wooden furniture and electronics by letting professionals handle climate-appropriate packing.
During the Move: Keep It Simple and Organized
Label everything clearly: Separate “seasonal stay” items from storage boxes.
Secure valuables and documents: Keep passports, medical info, and contracts with you.
Stay flexible: Weather can be unpredictable during your journey south. Your Big Burns Moving team tracks logistics and keeps you updated every step of the way.
Let the pros do the lifting: Relax while our trained movers handle your belongings with care, so you can focus on the excitement of Florida living.
After You Arrive: Enjoy Your Florida Winter
Unpack essentials first: Start with bedroom, kitchen, and patio items. You’re here to enjoy the sun!
