While moving can be an overwhelming prospect for many people, planning ahead can make a big difference in how smoothly your move goes. One key factor to consider is when you plan to move, as the time of year can influence everything from availability to cost and overall convenience. Here at Bulldog Movers, we recommend that if you have control over the timing, you should plan to move in the spring. Here’s why spring is the best season for moving.

Spring Has a Better Chance of Good Weather

While we can experience poor weather in any season, the likelihood of enjoying better weather for your move increases in spring. That’s especially true here in Georgia, as the winter months can bring freezing conditions and icy roads, and the summer months can bring sweltering heat and humidity. Spring offers a happy medium between these extremes, making you more likely to enjoy comfortable temperatures. Additionally, there is more daylight in the spring versus winter, providing more time in the day to move.

Spring Avoids the Busiest Moving Season

If you’re planning to hire a moving company, you’ll want to be aware of seasonal demand. Summer is often the busiest time of year for moving companies, as families plan to move while kids are on summer break to avoid disrupting their school year. It can be more challenging to find a moving company that’s available in the summer, especially if you want to be selective about the moving company’s reputation and get the best possible pricing for your move. A spring move can give you better availability and flexibility for your moving date.

Spring Is a Time of New Beginnings

Moving in the spring takes spring cleaning to a whole new level. If you’re someone who likes to use the spring months to do heavy-duty cleaning, spring is the best time for your move. You can use this time to pack your items, get rid of clutter, and unpack your belongings at your new place. This eliminates the possibility of moving unnecessary items, and you’ll have a more organized, efficient, and stress-free relocation process.

Timing Your Move

Sometimes, it’s simply not possible to choose exactly when to move. Landing a new job, closing on a house, and other major life events won’t wait for the ideal time to move. But if your calendar is flexible, a spring move can help reduce some undue burdens on your moving experience. And the more you plan ahead with your move, the more seamless the entire process will be.
