The first snow of the season has arrived in Indianapolis — a sure sign that winter is on its way. While snow might slow down some parts of daily life, at Wheaton Moving & Storage, it’s just another reminder that preparation and experience make all the difference.
Our team knows that moving doesn’t stop when the temperature drops. Whether you’re relocating across town or across the country, Wheaton is fully winter-ready and equipped to keep your move running smoothly, safely, and on schedule.
Prepared for Whatever Winter Brings
Snow and ice can create challenges for moving crews, vehicles, and customers alike — but our team is trained and equipped to handle them. Each winter, we prepare by:
- Inspecting and winterizing our fleet to ensure our trucks perform reliably in cold conditions.
- Equipping crews with the right winter gear to stay warm, safe, and focused.
- Stocking trucks with extra protective materials like floor covers, entryway mats, and waterproof wraps to keep your belongings safe from the elements.
- Planning around weather forecasts to build flexibility into each schedule, keeping safety and service top priorities.
These extra steps mean fewer surprises for you — and peace of mind knowing your move is in capable hands.
More Hands-On Time, More Personalized Service
The winter season naturally brings a slight slowdown in the overall moving industry compared to the busy summer months. For our customers, that change comes with a few key benefits:
- More flexibility in scheduling. With fewer moves happening each week, it’s easier to find the dates and times that work best for you.
- More attention to detail. Our crews can dedicate additional time to planning, packing, and protecting your home during loading and unloading.
- A more personal experience. With a little extra breathing room in the schedule, our teams can focus even more on what matters most — your family’s comfort and your move’s success.
At Wheaton, we see winter not as an obstacle, but as an opportunity to elevate our service even further.
Why Experience Matters Most
Moving in cold weather isn’t just about braving the snow — it’s about knowing how to adapt to every condition. Our drivers, packers, and coordinators have years of experience handling moves through Midwest winters. That expertise ensures:
- Driveways and walkways are safe and accessible before loading begins.
- Your belongings are protected from snow and moisture.
- Travel routes are carefully planned to minimize delays.
- Every member of the team works safely and efficiently, no matter the weather.
Experience is what allows Wheaton Moving & Storage to turn a potentially stressful winter move into a smooth, successful transition.
