North Brunswick Township, United States - December 12, 2023 /PressCable/

The latest guide discusses the advantages and disadvantages of moving at different months of the year, helping individuals schedule a home move that suits their needs. According to a recent study by The American Moving and Storage Association, most moves happen between May and September due to the warmer weather and extended daylight. As such, the guide delves into the popularity of summer moving, analyzing whether moving during peak season is the optimal course of action.

With their latest guide, Movers.com wants to help relocators schedule the perfect moving date to comply with their budget and weekly routine. The expert highlights the advantages of moving during the summer months, explaining that nice weather can often minimize the risk of damage or injury. During the summer, children are also out of school, making it easier for families with school-age children to schedule arrangements.

However, Movers.com also raises awareness of the negatives when moving during peak season. “Due to popularity, May through September tend to be the busiest months of the year for moving companies, and they typically get booked very quickly, causing their rates to be higher,” explains the guide. During these months, the competition for reputable companies is high, meaning that relocators may need to book their desired moving company months in advance.

Those looking to move on a lower budget might be better off scheduling an ‘off-season’ relocation, says the guide. “April is a good choice because it's at the beginning of the spring but falls just before the moving company's high season. If you have kids, consider their spring break as a time to make the transition.”

For those living in warmer climates, Movers.com also recommends December or January for scheduling a move. During these months, rates will be lower and individuals will have a wider range of moving companies to choose from. Similarly, the guide advises relocators to move mid-month on a weekday of their choice, as this is when the demand is usually lowest. The final scheduling suggestion in the guide is to move early in the morning when the weather is cooler and the streets are less busy. Moving early in the day also gives relocators longer to unload and unpack when they reach their new destination.

Those looking to hire a moving company for their planned relocation can find a list of reputable, licensed companies using Movers.com’s extensive online directory. For the full list of companies, please visit https://www.movers.com/
