Okay, so it might be hard to imagine winter right now when we’re all basking in 30+ degree temperatures, but I thought I’d try and stay one step ahead and give you some good reasons why moving in winter is a good thing. For those people who have already booked a summer move and have no choice in the matter, then they should at the very least find this information helpful. For those with the luxury to decide, then they might want to hold off that summer move until they’ve read this!
The good news is that there are two major benefits when moving during the winter months, both of which you should be able to take full advantage of.
More moving services should be available to you.
As most people want to move during the summer months when the weather is warmer and the days are slightly longer it stands to reason that this is when removalist companies are at their busiest. Therefore anyone looking to use the services of a popular company or indeed one that offers great value for money, might find that they’re out of luck because the company in question is fully booked. This means that unless you’re extremely organised and book very early on, your options will be limited.
O the contrary for the vast majority of removalists, winter times are generally less busy and therefore people who are looking to move at shorter notice stand a greater chance of getting the company that fits their needs.
Better prices
Getting the removalist company that you want is certainly a big advantage to moving during the winter months, but perhaps the biggest plus is that in most cases it’s also generally cheaper. Because companies aren’t as busy during this period they may reduce their prices in order to entice trade. If you can avoid moving on a Friday when prices are considered more expensive anyway, and instead opt for a mid-week move, then chances are that you can actually make a considerable saving.
So you see, there’s a lot to be said for a winter move. Not only do you stand a better chance of getting the company you want, you just might also secure their services at a bargain price.
