🌧️📦【Storm Austen 殺到｜英國落雨搬屋，點保護紙箱同傢俬？】
Met Office 顯示，Storm Austen 將為英國部分地區帶來強風同大雨，部分地區亦已發出天氣警告。呢幾日需要搬屋、收貨或者安排配送嘅朋友，記得密切留意最新天氣及交通消息。
英國天氣話變就變，搬屋或者送貨當日遇上大雨，除咗搬運比較辛苦，紙箱、傢俬同個人物品亦可能因為受潮而受損。
搬運前做好以下準備，可以減低物品被雨水整濕嘅機會👇
📦 紙箱底部及封口要加固
使用狀態良好、冇受潮嘅紙箱，並用足夠膠紙封實箱底、頂部及接駁位置。避免紙箱裝得過重，以免濕水後承托力下降。
💧 怕濕物品先加防水內袋
衣物、床上用品、書本及重要文件，可以先用密封袋或厚膠袋包好，再放入紙箱，增加一層防水保護。
🛏️ 床褥使用專用床褥袋
床褥容易吸水，搬運前可以使用合適尺寸嘅專用床褥袋包好，並將袋口封妥，減少搬運途中接觸雨水及污漬。
🛋️ 傢俬使用工業纏繞膜包裹
梳化、餐椅、木櫃及其他傢俬，可以按需要使用大卷透明工業纏繞膜多層包裹。包裝時要覆蓋邊角及容易受潮嘅位置，減少短暫接觸雨水。
⬆️ 紙箱唔好直接放喺濕地
可以使用手推車、膠板或其他合適工具墊高物品，亦應盡量縮短紙箱放喺門外或路邊嘅時間。
🚪 預先清理搬運通道
確認門口、走廊及樓梯冇積水或雜物，避免搬運期間跣倒。亦可以預先準備地墊，減少將雨水帶入屋。
🚚 提早確認泊車位置
貨車距離門口愈近，物品暴露喺雨中嘅時間就愈短。查詢搬運時，記得提供泊車限制、入口位置及地址相片。
如果遇上強風、暴雨或道路狀況欠佳，收貨及配送時間可能需要因應安全情況作出調整，敬請大家體諒。安全始終比趕時間更重要。🙌

1️⃣ 出發地及目的地／Postcode
2️⃣ 預計搬運日期
3️⃣ 紙箱、行李及傢俬數量
4️⃣ 大型物品嘅尺寸及相片
5️⃣ 樓層、升降機及泊車情況

🌧️📦【Storm Austen Is Approaching｜How Can You Protect Your Boxes and Furniture When Moving in the Rain?】
The Met Office has forecast that Storm Austen will bring strong winds and heavy rain to parts of the UK, with weather warnings issued in some areas. If you are moving home, receiving a shipment or expecting a delivery over the next few days, please keep an eye on the latest weather and travel updates.
The British weather can change very quickly. If heavy rain arrives on moving or delivery day, it can make the work more difficult and may expose your boxes, furniture and personal belongings to moisture.
A little preparation can help reduce the risk of rain damage 👇
📦 Reinforce the base and openings of every box
Use sturdy boxes that are in good, dry condition. Seal the base, top and joins securely with sufficient packing tape, and avoid overloading them, as damp cardboard may lose some of its strength.
💧 Place moisture-sensitive items inside waterproof bags
Clothes, bedding, books and important documents can be placed inside sealed or heavy-duty plastic bags before being packed into boxes for an additional layer of protection.
🛏️ Use a purpose-made mattress bag
Mattresses can absorb water easily. Before moving, place the entire mattress inside a suitably sized mattress bag and seal the opening securely to reduce exposure to rain and dirt.
🛋️ Wrap furniture with industrial stretch film
Sofas, dining chairs, wooden cabinets and other furniture can be securely wrapped with multiple layers of clear industrial stretch film where required. Pay particular attention to corners, edges and areas that may be vulnerable to moisture.
⬆️ Do not place boxes directly on wet ground
Use a trolley, plastic board or another suitable raised surface where possible. Try to minimise the amount of time boxes are left outside or beside the road.
🚪 Clear the moving route in advance
Check that entrances, corridors and stairways are clear of standing water and other obstacles. Placing mats near the entrance can also help prevent rainwater from being carried into the property.
🚚 Confirm parking arrangements beforehand
The closer the vehicle can park to the entrance, the less time your belongings will spend exposed to the rain. When making an enquiry, please provide details of any parking restrictions, access points and useful photos of the address.
During strong winds, heavy rain or unsafe road conditions, collection and delivery times may need to be adjusted for safety. Thank you for your understanding—safety will always be more important than rushing the job. 🙌
For a moving or delivery enquiry, please provide:
1️⃣ Collection and delivery locations/postcodes
2️⃣ Preferred moving date
3️⃣ Number of boxes, suitcases and pieces of furniture
4️⃣ Dimensions and photos of any large items
5️⃣ Floor levels, lift access and parking arrangements
📩 Inbox Kongtrans to discuss your moving or delivery arrangements!
＊The appropriate packing method will depend on the type, size and condition of the items. Moving times and arrangements may also be affected by the weather, road conditions, the number of items and access at each address.
