What’s the best time of year to plan your move? Consider these factors.
When it comes to moving, timing can make all the difference. Whether you’re relocating your family to a new home or transitioning your business to a different space, choosing the right time of year to plan your move can help you save money, reduce stress, and make the process more efficient. At Von Paris Moving & Storage, we help clients plan moves year-round, but there are key seasonal considerations that can influence your decision.
Spring: A Fresh Start
Spring is often considered one of the most ideal seasons for moving. The weather is mild, days are longer, and you can settle in before summer activities begin. Families also find spring a good time to prepare for a summer move before the new school year starts.
Pros: Pleasant weather, easier to sell your home, better moving conditions.
Cons: It’s a popular season to move, so you should book early to secure your preferred dates.
Summer: Peak Moving Season
Summer is the busiest time of year to plan your move in the U.S. Many families schedule their move during this time to align with school breaks. The real estate market is also in full swing, giving you more housing options.
Pros: More housing choices, no school disruptions for kids.
Cons: Higher demand can mean higher rates and limited availability—reserve your moving team early with Von Paris to lock in your spot.
Fall: Budget-Friendly and Flexible
If you’re looking for cost savings, fall can be an excellent time to move. Demand drops after summer, which can mean more flexible scheduling and competitive rates. The weather is still mild, making for comfortable moving conditions.
Pros: Better rates, flexible scheduling, cooler temperatures.
Cons: Families with school-aged children may find it disruptive to the school year.
Winter: The Quiet Season
Winter is typically the slowest time of year to plan your move, which can be an advantage if you want to secure your ideal moving date and potentially save on costs. While cold weather may pose challenges, professional movers like Von Paris are prepared for all conditions.
Pros: Lower costs, easier scheduling.
Cons: Potential for weather delays in colder regions.
