You’ve decided to move, you’ve found your new place, and you’re excited to go. You’ve even decided you will be using a professional moving company like the Waco Little Guys Movers to help make everything easier for you. But how far in advance do you book?
Factors to Determine How Early You Book Your Move
A safe bet is to call your movers as far in advance as you can to ensure your moving day is available to be reserved, and that all the equipment needed for your move is free to be used. A general guideline is that a minimum of one to two weeks out from your move date is alright to call your movers, though further out is better. Any less than that may limit what equipment — dollies, trucks, etc. — may be available to you. You may want to book your movers sooner if your move involves any of these factors:
Move Size
If you are moving out of a studio or one bedroom apartment, you will have significantly less to relocate than if you are leaving a four bedroom house. If you are leaving a larger property, consider booking further in advance to be sure you will have enough trucks and movers available.
Move Distance
How far are you moving? If you are only moving across Waco, your movers won’t need as much advanced knowledge, 2-4 weeks. However, if you are moving across Texas, it can be helpful to give your movers more of a head’s up, around 2 months. And, if you are moving across the country, three months’ notice will allow your movers enough time to fully prepare.
Moving Season
Most people like to move during the warmer months, so if you are looking to move in late spring or during the summer, you may want to contact your local Waco moving company sooner rather than later to make sure you have them when you want them. In the cooler months, you have a little more leeway, but don’t put off your booking call for too long.
All this to say, Little Guys is ready to take your call as soon as you are ready to move. The further in advance you call, the more likely we are to have the day, time, and equipment you want, but we are always willing to do the work you need done.
