In January 2019, Tanner and I embarked on a new chapter by moving to Spokane during the winter. Our first surprise wasn't unpacking, but navigating the dense fog in Airway Heights. In this blog post, I'll share insights from our experience to help make your winter move to Spokane as seamless as possible.
Understanding Spokane's Winter Weather: Our first encounter with Spokane's infamous fog and South Hill's icy challenges taught us that winter here is an unpredictable adventure!
Preparing Your New Home: Learning the importance of a winter-ready home was crucial. AF Honest Home Services was invaluable for our HVAC and electrical needs. Check them out at AF Honest Home Services.
Packing Tips for Cold Weather: Sensitive items like electronics need special care. We found these tips invaluable: 13 Tips for a Successful Cold Weather Move.
Hiring the Right Movers: Choosing movers experienced with Spokane's winter roads is key. The right team makes a big difference in snowy conditions. Check out Allstar Pro Movers, a local family owned business.
Safety First: Safety was our top priority. Remember to clear snow and ice. For pre-move-in snow removal, we recommend Move-In Magic. Learn more at Move-In Magic Services.
Enjoying Spokane's Winter Wonderland: Once settled, we explored Spokane's winter activities. Sledding and a warm water park retreat at Silver Mt (Silver Mt), some warmth in the Gaiser Conservatory (Gaiser Conservatory), and the Friends of Manito Holiday Lights (The Friends of Manito) are just a few of our favorites.
