How to Plan Your Summer Move

Summer is a great and popular time to move! Home prices are generally at a high in the summer, which is great for sellers. Kids are out of school, and many year-round activities and sports take a break over the summer. And, of course, many families want to get a move in during the summer so they can start their children at a new school in the fall. So if you have a summer move planned, we want to give you some helpful pointers, including how to find the right packing and unpacking services.

Hire Movers For Your Summer Move

This isn’t always an option for everyone, but if you have an established family, lots of heavy or expensive items, or aren’t able to do a move yourself, hiring a company that can pack and unpack your home is the best option.

An article from Angie’s List explains why there are so many reasons to hire professional movers. Some of the most important reasons are that professionals know how to move your fragile and valuable items. 

Create a List of Details

There are so many small things to take care of when you move that making a list will prove to be a huge help in making sure you complete everything. Make sure to cancel all of your bills for your moving date like utilities and cable/phone services. For other important mail, change your mailing address online. You can check out this link from the USPS on changing your address and forwarding mail to your new address. Don’t forget to set up utilities and services for your new home as well!

Get Settled in Your New Hometown

Like we said, summer is a great time to move because you have plenty of time to settle in before the school year starts. If you are moving a family, check out local activities for your kids to join in the fall. Even if you don’t have a family, make sure you investigate some local activities for yourself, too!
