Do you look out into your backyard and feel like something is missing? Maybe it’s a hot tub that you can’t stop fantasizing and dreaming about. Perhaps you browse hot tub store after hot tub store thinking “one day that I’ll own one of these beautiful spaces.” After all, how nice would it be to come home after a long day and enjoy a relaxing soak in your very own backyard? Despite all of this dreaming and fantasizing, have you hesitated to buy one because you think you can’t have a hot tub because you move all the time? Texas Hot Tub Company is here to tell you that your dreams can become a reality!
Moving with a hot tub is absolutely doable and possible when you choose a portable hot tub from Texas Hot Tub Company. Choosing a hot tub like a model from Freeflow Spas® or Strong® Spas gives you an incredible plug-n-play hot tub option that’s ready to use and easy to move.
A Hot Tub Can Move with You: How to Move it Yourself
Let’s say you do finally bite the bullet and purchase a hot tub. You’re gloriously happy, finding yourself more relaxed than ever after using it on a regular basis, and then… you have to move. That’s okay! The best portable hot tub can move with you. You can even move it on your own, if needed.
If this is your preference, you will need some strong friends and a large moving truck. Additionally, we recommend using a hand truck or furniture dollies, moving blankets, and 4×4 lumber boards for loading and unloading the hot tub on and off the moving truck.
In preparation for your move, you should carefully review the drainage instructions in your hot tub’s manual. Then, about a day before moving day, drain the water out of your hot tub. Following that, dry out any leftover water and remove the hot tub cover entirely.
Then it’s time to load your hot tub onto the moving truck. The method for moving the hot tub varies depending on the surface that you’re moving it on or if you’re moving it down stairs. No matter the surface, it is possible for your hot tub to move when you move!
Let the Professionals Move it
Of course, there’s nothing wrong with hiring a professional moving company to do the literal heavy lifting of your hot tub for you. Plus, they should already have all the equipment they need to pack and load it up safely. Costs of having a professional company vary from city to city, but the average cost is usually between $350-$400. This price could definitely feel very well worth it to some as it comes along with the assurance that your hot tub will arrive at your new home safe and sound. However, it does not hurt to get insurance in case something was to happen during transportation.
Before you officially hire a specific company, it’s also a good idea to read any available reviews and ask them about any prior experience they have moving large items such as hot tubs.
