The very last thing you want is to be unwell when you move. Try as you might, you can still find yourself in this predicament. Being sick when you move can complicate an already challenging moving process. The good thing is you could take some steps to ensure you remain healthy as you move.
 
 

Wash Your Hands

Hand washing will help you each day of your life, not excluding moving days. It is among the most effective and convenient ways to avoid getting sick or spreading diseases. Your hands will carry germs, bacteria, or viruses from the various spots you touch as you pack up, open doors, handle the boxes, or settle in your new premises. Santizing your hands often makes sure you wash away all disease-causing contaminant you might have picked up, minimizing your chances of getting sick. You might also place antibacterial soap and paper towels in the bathroom for the professional movers too.

Wear a Mask and Avoid Touching Your Face

As COVID-19 cases stay high, wearing a mask remains a vital step to help you avoid it. You will be near with numerous individuals as you move, but a mask will help to offer some protection. You may complement this measure by keeping at least six feet from another person. Clean your hands with the recommended sanitizers and avoid touching your face. It's recommended that you don’t touch your eyes, nose, or mouth. Adhering to this guideline might be challenging as Healthline reports that the average person touches their face around 16 times every hour. Routinely washing your hands can lessen your risks but avoid touching your face, too.

Ask the Movers to Wear Masks

Professional movers in Tulsa and Oklahoma City should follow all the recommended COVID-19 safety protocols. When the movers get there to help you move, you can remind them to wear masks and sanitize or wash their hands frequently.

Clean High Touch Areas Frequently

High-touch spots are surfaces that people touch frequently. These individuals may easily contaminate these spots or pick up microorganisms from these surfaces using their hands. Regularly clean the high touch surfaces, including light switches, door handles, and shared equipment. Disinfecting these locations minimizes your likelihood of getting germs on your hands when you contact them. Hence, you won't introduce them to your body if you touch your face or eat ahead of washing your hands. You’ll also want to disinfect these surfaces in your new house.

Open the Windows

Bringing fresh air into your residence will be an excellent way to lessen your chances of getting sick from airborne germs. Opening your windows permits air to circulate, preventing the germs from gathering in your home. You may open the windows at both your current and new houses, especially when the professional movers in Tulsa and Oklahoma City will enter to pack, unpack, or perhaps move your items. Turn on exhaust fans in your bathroom and kitchen to ensure the air moves out of your house.

Boost Your Immunity

Take your vitamins, drink lots of water, get peaceful sleep, and consume nutritious foods to strengthen your immune system. A strong immunity minimizes the odds of getting ill. If you get sick, you could feel better speedily. Sleeping at least 7-8 hours a night also lessens the chances of being tired and catching a cold over your move.
