Is it Moving Time?

Is it Moving Time

Summer is a busy moving time for everyone in the US. Usually, moving season begins in March and ends at the beginning of September when school starts, during the season prices are much higher than offseason because of the higher demand for relocation services.

Luckily, we are here to help you understand how the moving seasons work and when it is time for you to move!

March to August

Advantages

1. Usually, companies will not try to fight for the customers and will provide you with a fair offer during the season period as there is enough demand to move, result: fair prices
2. The best period to move out of state to more Northern states like Illinois, Michigan, Montana, Washington, etc.
3. Delivery time frames are much better, more customers going in the same direction

Disadvantages

• Higher prices, actual prices can be 30-50% higher than the off-season period.
• Delivery time frames for local moves, in-state are longer.
• Companies are overbooked, and there is a higher chance that movers will not be there on the date that you reserve the move for.

September to March

Advantages

1. Price, cheaper rates.
2. Moving companies have more flexibility (easy scheduling)
3. Moving in Florida can be more comfortable, cooler weather.
4. Better delivery time frames if you are moving in-state.

Disadvantages

• Lowball estimates from a non-reputable mover (companies trying to survive in season and catch customers) Result in a much higher price.
• Harder to move out of state during winter, extended delivery time frames for the period from late November to February.
• Delivery time frames are longer, harder for movers to assemble truck with necessary amounts of goods to deliver.
