It was also a long way away from my native Texas. There were things I wasn’t prepared for – especially New England’s brutal winters. Ironically, though, I found that people in New England seemed like they weren’t terribly well prepared for me either. ‘Texas’ seemed to be a word loaded with meanings to someone raised on the East Coast, and I didn’t seem to fit the bill for any of them. Anytime I was asked where I hailed from, I could see people’s brains lock up when they heard the name ‘Texas’.

“But,” they’d say, “you don’t have an accent!” It was true, I didn’t. And I still don’t. And I don’t wear a cowboy hat. And I don’t have a six-shooter. And I know nothing about herding cattle. And I’m not particularly stoic or laconic or tough or any of those things you see in the movies. I’m just a guy.

But since those perceptions seem to endure among people who’ve never been to the Lone Star State, I thought I’d devote a hub to debunking some Texas myths, and to providing some insight on this oft-fabled state to those who might be considering moving down here. As you’ve heard, it’s a big place, and there’s a lot to know!  Read this hub for more information.

If you are moving a pet such as a dog, cat, rabbit, or a bird, there are several things to consider. For example, is your pet used to traveling in the car? Will they be comfortable sitting in a seat or in a crate without great anxiety? Will your car be used to transport your household items as well as your pet? If so, will your pet be able to comfortably sit with the items without harm coming to either? If there is a bit of travel time between your old home and your new home, will they need water, food, or a bathroom break?

If you are moving fish, your Houston moving company will usually help you move the tank, but the fish and water need to be emptied from the tank prior to their arrival. They may need to be moved into a smaller tank or other fish safe and friendly container that can be transported in your vehicle without splashing; your local pet store will be able to provide you with the best advice on transporting fish.

We know it’s a lot to consider, but your additional family member will appreciate your efforts more than you know!

Summer will be over in just a few short weeks.  Kids are heading back to school and soon the cooler temperatures will blow…I can’t wait! As with any season, many individuals change draperies, bedding, move furniture around and change décor.  Are you considering changing décor and have no place to put your spring and summer items?  Years ago our grandparents used containers in the home and stored items with moth balls until the next season.  However, in today’s world even though our homes are somewhat larger than back then, we still don’t have enough space for our out-of season items.  Is that your issue?  Consider using a storage unit.  A storage unit could be a good remedy to store your items until spring and then add your fall and winter items for storage until the next season.

Now, this type of storage can’t be done by anyone.  For safe-keeping of your valuables you need a reputable Houston moving and storage company.  A first-rate moving and storage company will come and pick up your items, wrap them for secure transport and storage in their climate-controlled facility for any length of time.

Your storage unit is generally accessible by you and the storage company’s staff only.  Normally with a simple phone call ahead of time you can have access to your items.
