Planning a move can feel like a daunting task, but one of the best things you can do to alleviate some of the stress is to schedule your move in advance. Here’s why booking early can make all the difference.
1. One Less Thing on Your To-Do List
Moving involves a lot of planning and coordination. By scheduling your move in advance, you can cross one major item off your to-do list. Knowing your move date is set allows you to focus on other important aspects, such as packing, notifying utilities, and updating your address. Early scheduling means fewer last-minute hassles and a more organized move.
2. Better Pricing and Cost Savings
Booking your move early can also save you money. Just like airline tickets, moving costs can increase as the move date approaches. Movers have a limited number of slots available each day, and as those slots fill up, prices can go up. By securing your date ahead of time, you can lock in the best rates and avoid the risk of paying a premium for last-minute scheduling.
3. Greater Availability and Flexibility
Moving companies tend to get busier during peak times, such as weekends, the end of the month, and the summer season. By scheduling your move a minimum of two weeks in advance, you increase the likelihood of securing your preferred date and time. This is especially important if you have specific scheduling needs, such as moving out by a certain day or coordinating with the closing date on your new home.
4. Avoid Last-Minute Panic
Unfortunately, we often hear stories about customers who waited until the last minute to book their move, only to be left scrambling when no movers were available. Worse yet, some are stood up by unreliable moving companies or find themselves in a bind due to unforeseen circumstances. By planning ahead, you can avoid this stress and ensure a smooth, well-coordinated move.
5. Choosing the Right Moving Company
When you book in advance, you also have the luxury of time to research and choose a moving company that fits your needs. You want to work with a company that is accountable, has integrity, and can communicate clearly throughout the process. Taking the time to select the right movers means you’re more likely to have a positive experience and a stress-free move.
What’s the Best Time to Book?
If possible, aim to schedule your move at least two weeks in advance. This window gives you enough time to find the right movers, secure your desired date, and prepare for the move without feeling rushed. During peak moving seasons or if you have a more complex move, such as a long-distance relocation or a large home, consider booking even earlier—up to a month in advance—to ensure everything goes smoothly.
