Rain is normal. Ice is the problem.
Keighley gets plenty of wet days. Rain means floor protection, wet steps and boxes that should not sit on a pavement. That is manageable. Ice on Thwaites Brow, Stanbury and the road into Oxenhope is the reason to change the start time. Tell us on the morning if the lane has not been treated. A later start is better than a loaded van on a hill.
Summer crowds are a season too
Haworth in school holidays is a parking problem, not a weather problem. Worth Valley railway days add cars in Oakworth and Oxenhope. If you can move on a weekday morning before visitors arrive, say so when you book the house removal. Early starts can be planned. Weekends can be planned when that is your only free day, with the crowd included in the timing.
What to do the day before, in any season
- Defrost the fridge so it is dry before it is moved.
- Keep a dry set of bedding and towels in your car.
- Do not leave boxes outside overnight. Rain in this valley is not a surprise.
- Check the path is gritted if you know the street ices over.
- Tell us about an unmade track. Wet weather turns it into a different surface.
