When moving in the summer, you've got to take into account your professional movers' availability, weather conditions, as well as your and your family's own personal schedules. Moving is a complex process that can rarely be completed in just one day. For a stress-free and seamless move, plenty of planning and preparation is needed.
Giving yourself the time to accomplish everything you need to do before your moving crew arrives within a comfortable time frame is important. That's why scheduling a move during the summer months is ideal for most families. That's when many professionals can take days off from their work for vacation and that's when students of all ages are free from school. This extended time off is why summer is considered the peak moving season.
Peak moving season lasts through the months of April, May, June, July, August, and September, with June, July, and August being the busiest months for moving companies. Unsurprisingly, summer break for most primary and secondary schools as well as universities are typically during those three months. Several dates within those months, as well as the month of May, are the perfect time to schedule a residential move the whole family can conveniently participate in.
While the demand for professional movers is higher during peak season resulting in higher moving rates, plenty of families will still be moving in the summer. The convenience of relocating when you and your kids are free from the commitments and day-to-day responsibilities of school and work is often worth the investment. There is rarely another time during the year for such extended breaks aside from summertime.
