Like all seasons, summer is quickly coming to an end, which means the end of summer travel. But if you’re looking back at this year’s vacations and have already started making plans to avoid that same travel stress this fall or even next summer, it might be time to enlist the help of a MOD assistant.
We’ve already done a deep dive on how our virtual assistants are an incredible help for travel planning (read the full blog here), and today we’re giving you 5 ways a personal assistant can help with travel whether you’re taking a day trip or getting out of the country.
Dry cleaning and laundry
It’s always a pain when you go to pack for a trip and everything you need is dirty. But if you work with a personal assistant they can handle the tedious task of dropping off and picking up your dry cleaning while also handling your at-home laundry. Plus, they can take care of this both before and after your trip to give you back that time.
House sitting
Are you expecting a delivery while you’re out of town? Will you be missing trash day? Do you have pets that need to be fed and taken care of? Do your plants have a strict watering schedule? Thankfully, these are all tasks a PA can handle while you’re enjoying your time away. Having peace of mind knowing your home and everything in it are taken care of while you’re enjoying your time off is truly priceless.
And if you’re heading out of town for a long trip be sure to read our guide on preparing your home before you’re head out.
Get your car serviced and cleaned
Before you drive across the country, you need to make sure your car is both safe and clean. An assistant can schedule your car for a service appointment, bring it into the shop, and even take it to a carwash on the way back home. That way you’re heading out knowing that everything is safe and ready to go.

Shop for last minute items
If you can make a list, an assistant can check it off Whether you need them to pickup online orders from the mall, shop for last minute toiletries, or grab your favorite travel snacks, they can handle it all!
Unpack your bags
When you get back home from a long trip, the last thing anyone wants to do is immediately jump into unpacking. With a personal assistant, you don’t have to. They can unpack all of your bags, start laundry, and yes, handle your dry-cleaning drop off and pick up so you can get settled back into your home and life.
While most personal assistants can logistically do anything a virtual assistant does for travel planning (travel research, booking, etc.) they have the added bonus of being there for you in person both before and after your trip to pick up all the pieces. So before you take that next trip, think about bringing a personal assistant into the picture to help you.
