So, you’re making the big move to sunny Florida! Maybe you’re chasing palm trees, warm winters, or beachside living — but before you pack the moving truck, there’s something every out-of-state newcomer should know:
Florida’s climate comes with unique challenges that can impact your move.
From year-round humidity to unpredictable hurricane season, relocating here isn’t just about boxes and furniture — it’s about protecting your home and belongings from weather-related risks. That’s where Albert’s Relocation Services comes in. As Cooper City’s trusted local mover, we help newcomers navigate the Florida environment with smart packing, weather planning, and on-time delivery.

Humidity: The Hidden Threat to Your Belongings
Florida’s humidity isn’t just a sweaty annoyance — it can damage delicate items like wood furniture, artwork, leather, and electronics.
If you’re moving from a dry climate, here’s what you need to know:
- Moisture can warp, crack, or mold certain materials.
- Unprotected fabrics and boxes can absorb damp air.
- Electronics are sensitive to condensation and heat.
We use climate-aware packing techniques — including plastic wraps, moisture barriers, and breathable materials — to protect your belongings in transit. We also recommend climate-controlled storage if you need to delay move-in.
Unpack fragile items promptly to avoid prolonged exposure to Florida’s humidity.
Hurricane Season: Timing Is Everything
Florida’s hurricane season runs June 1 to November 30, and even inland areas like Cooper City can experience storms, flooding, or supply disruptions.
What does this mean for your move?
- Moves may need to be rescheduled if severe weather approaches.
- Roads can flood, delaying deliveries.
- Movers must know local evacuation routes and safety protocols.
As a local company, we monitor storm forecasts and proactively adjust move dates when needed. Our team knows how to secure trucks, protect furniture, and work safely — so your move won’t get washed out.
If you can, plan your move outside peak hurricane months (August–October) or leave some flexibility in your schedule.
Homes: What’s Different in Florida?
Florida homes often have unique features designed to handle the local climate, such as:
- Hurricane-impact windows or shutters
- Elevated foundations in flood zones
- Tile roofs and stucco exteriors
- Stronger A/C systems to combat heat and humidity
We coordinate with your new home’s HOA or property manager to ensure smooth move-in — especially in gated communities or condos with strict move rules.
Check local HOA policies before moving day; some require pre-approval for trucks or specific loading zones.
