Moving in Summer

Pros of Summer Moves

Longer Daylight Hours: Extended daylight allows for more time to pack, load, and unload safely.

Favourable Weather: Dry and mild conditions reduce the risk of weather-related delays or damage to belongings.

School Holiday Convenience: Families benefit from aligning the move with school breaks, avoiding disruptions to education.

Cons of Summer Moves

Higher Costs: Peak season demand often results in higher removals prices. Early booking is crucial.

Busy Roads and Traffic: Increased holiday travel can lead to congested roads and potential delays.

Limited Availability: Removals companies may be fully booked during peak summer months.

Moving in Winter

Pros of Winter Moves

Lower Costs: Fewer people move in winter, often resulting in more affordable removals quotes.

Flexible Scheduling: Greater availability of removals companies allows more choice in timing and services.

Quieter Streets: Less traffic can make the moving process faster and safer.

Cons of Winter Moves

Shorter Daylight Hours: Limited daylight can reduce working time and increase stress.

Challenging Weather Conditions: Rain, snow, or ice can create hazards for transporting furniture and personal items.

Disrupted Routines: School schedules and public holidays can complicate family moves.

Good to Know….

Book Early

Ideally, book your removal company 4-6 weeks before your move date to allow time for a pre-move survey and compare quotes.

Packing and Unpacking:

Packing and unpacking services add to the overall cost, with comprehensive packing typically adding £400-£500 for a 3-bedroom house and unpacking costing around £200.

Tips for Seasonal Moves

Plan Ahead: Booking removals early ensures availability and better rates, especially in summer.

Prepare for Weather: Use protective coverings for furniture and plan routes carefully in winter.

Adjust Schedules: Consider packing and loading earlier in the day to maximise daylight hours.

Budget Accordingly: Account for seasonal price differences and potential extra costs.

Planning ahead is essential for a smooth seasonal move in the UK. Booking your removals company early not only guarantees availability but can also secure better rates, particularly during the busy summer months. Early planning gives you more flexibility in choosing dates, ensures that experienced movers are available, and reduces last-minute stress.

Preparing for weather conditions is another critical consideration, especially for winter moves. Protective coverings for furniture and delicate items help prevent damage from rain, snow, or ice, while careful route planning can avoid hazardous or congested roads. Taking weather into account allows you to maintain safety and efficiency throughout the move.

Adjusting schedules to align with daylight hours can make the moving process much easier. Starting packing and loading earlier in the day maximises natural light, making it safer to handle heavy or fragile items. Additionally, budgeting with seasonal differences in mind ensures that you account for higher summer costs or potential winter-related expenses, helping your relocation remain smooth and financially manageable.

Final Thoughts

Both summer and winter moves in the UK present distinct considerations that can impact your relocation experience. Summer moves benefit from longer daylight hours, making it easier to pack, load, and transport belongings safely. The generally milder weather also reduces the risk of delays caused by rain, snow, or icy conditions, allowing for a smoother moving process.

However, these advantages often come with higher costs. Summer is peak moving season, meaning removals companies may charge more due to high demand. Booking early and planning well in advance is essential to secure availability and manage expenses during this busy period.

Winter moves, on the other hand, tend to be less expensive and less crowded. Moving companies may offer discounts during the off-peak season, and fewer people relocating means more flexible scheduling. This can make it easier to find movers who can accommodate your preferred dates without paying a premium.

Despite the cost savings, winter relocations come with challenges. Cold, wet, or icy conditions can increase the risk of accidents and make packing and transporting furniture more difficult. Extra precautions, such as protective coverings and careful route planning, are essential to ensure the safety of both belongings and movers.

Ultimately, the choice between summer and winter moving depends on your priorities. By carefully evaluating the advantages and disadvantages of each season, planning ahead, and preparing for weather-related challenges, you can make your UK house move as smooth, efficient, and stress-free as possible.

FAQ’s!

Do I need a Survey?

A reputable removals company will offer a free pre-move survey. This will consist of sending a member of staff to your home to analyse your moving needs. Sometimes, this survey can also be done via video call if you prefer, for ease and convenience.

The pre-move survey should allow your removals company to establish how big the move will be, so they can plan and prepare what they’ll need to provide in terms of staffing and equipment. It’s also a chance for you to discuss if you need any additional services, such as storage or packing.

After the survey, you should ask for a full written quote for what has been discussed.

Do they Supply Packaging Materials?

Most removal companies should be able to provide you with packing material. Of course, you’re welcome to get your packing materials elsewhere, but getting them from your professional removal company should help to keep your belongings safe and protected while they’re being moved.

Many removal companies will be able to provide boxes, as well as packing paper or bubble wrap, and padded bags for fragile items, if required. Speak to your removal company about exactly what they can provide, how much it will cost and when they will be able to deliver the material to you so you can start packing.

Are there any items they can’t move?

If you have dangerous goods that need moving, you should check whether your insurance company is able to move them. Often, due to health and safety requirements, removal companies might not be able to move certain goods, and you will have to move them yourself. This could include flammables, corrosives and firearms.

If you have any items that you think might cause a problem, be sure to bring it up with your removal company so they can confirm. Or, check the terms and conditions that your removal company will provide you with, here items not to be included for carriage should be listed.
