Tips for a Safe Move

I know what you're thinking - how dangerous can moving really be? While most of us won't need to post a hazard sign or wear a hard hat and work boots, injuries often occur during a move - injuries that can easily be avoided, like the time I sprained my ankle because I didn't see the concrete step on the walkway. Of course, I was carrying a box full of fragile items, which fortunately survived the fall better than I did, thanks to good packing habits.

So to avoid any messy spills, find out what possible hazards to look out for, how to ensure they don't impede your move and tips on ensuring everyone gets through the move unscathed.
