Why Home Furniture Rental for Relocation Matters Midseason
Baseball fans see the stats, the trades, the big plays. But for players and their families, life in-season can bring major disruptions—new teams, new cities, and a lot of uncertainty in between.
One story that stands out: a midseason trade sent a veteran player and his family across the country, with a newborn in tow. Amid the emotional and logistical whirlwind, they had to find a place to live—fast.
The good news? They could pick the home they wanted, knowing they didn’t have to worry about whether it came furnished. CORT made that part easy.

What Moving Midseason Feels Like—and How Home Furniture Rental Helped
For one veteran player and his family, the season brought a midyear trade. Suddenly, they were packing up life with a newborn and relocating to Seattle—without much notice, and without time to fully plan what came next.
“We found the perfect house,” his spouse shared. “But it was unfurnished. And we had a baby. You’re trying to wrap your head around the move and immediately start worrying about the logistics.”
That’s where CORT came in—not to manage the relocation, but to make the landing softer. With quick selection, fast delivery, and full setup, CORT helped them turn a house into a home almost overnight.
Relocating Midseason with a Family: A Balancing Act of Emotion and Urgency
Relocations are always personal. But midseason ones are especially intense—when routines are upended and emotions run high.
For this family, the stress wasn’t just about the move. It was about helping their newborn adjust, managing the distance between loved ones, and creating a feeling of normalcy as quickly as possible.
And sometimes, it’s the little things that make the biggest difference.
“It wasn’t just a bed or a couch,” she said. “CORT provided plants, rugs, mirrors—even kitchen appliances. It all made us feel like we could just breathe and be present, without starting from scratch.”
