Best Day, Week & Month To Move

To make the moving process easier and less expensive, take the time to plan your actual moving day.

Ideally, you should plan your moving day for Monday through Thursday and best is a Tuesday or Wednesday. Also do not plan your move during a holiday, school event, or other time of the year when people typically do not have work. Most people plan their moves on holidays or weekends and you will find many advantages in off peak times. When most people are working and there are fewer reservations, companies lower the price to try to entice people to move on the days they have less business. If you can move on one of these days rather than the weekend you’ll save yourself some money 

The best time of the month to move is in the middle of the month, on or around the 15th. The beginning and end of each month are traditionally busier than mid-month, regardless of the season. The worst day of the month to move is on the 1st of the month, when everyone else is moving.  

The best month of the year to move varies depending upon your goals. Half of all moves occur during one-third of the year – between the beginning of May and Labor Day.

The best time of the day to move is early morning.  Moving always take much longer than anticipated, so the earlier you start, the more energy you will have and the sooner you will be finished.
