As the holidays roll in, most folks are trimming trees or watching the calendar for time off. But for many in the manufactured housing industry, this time of year isn’t a slowdown—it’s a shift.
Whether you’re keeping parts in stock, prepping HVAC installs before cold snaps hit, or managing community maintenance during short-staffed weeks, the holiday season brings its own set of pressures. And that’s where Blevins comes in—right beside you.
Stock Smart, Stay Ready
Inventory gets tight in December. Weather delays, shipping congestion, and last-minute orders are the norm. Now’s the time to:
- Check HVAC units and skirting availability
Demand for heating systems spikes. Make sure you’re covered on essential winter stock like gas furnaces, insulated skirting, and venting kits.
(Need a hand? Your Blevins rep can help you lock in availability across our warehouses.) - Order ahead for January
Many suppliers pause operations or reduce staff late December. Think ahead and place those early-January parts orders now. It’ll save you stress later.
Service Doesn’t Take Time Off
We know your customers don’t always wait for business hours—and emergencies don’t care about the calendar.
That’s why:
- You’ll talk to a real person at Blevins, even during the holidays.
- Our teams don’t just answer the phone—they solve problems. Fast.
- You get updates if things change—because no one likes being left guessing.
We honor our commitment to be there for every order, every call, every time.
Support Your Team—and Yourself
If you’re running a parts store, lot, or install crew, the holidays can stretch your people thin. This season, small acts matter:
- Give clear expectations so folks know what’s urgent and what can wait.
- Look out for signs of burnout—on the floor or in the field.
- And when you get the chance: say thanks. A little goes a long way.
This kind of leadership is part of who we are—showing up, following through, and setting others up to succeed.
