Summer time is the busiest time of the year for movers. In addition, the beginning and end of each month are traditionally busier than mid month, regardless of the season. If you are planning to move during one of these times, plan well in advance so your mover's schedule will fit yours. Now it is time to contact the movers on your list. Inform them of your destination and the timing of your move. Ask movers to provide you with a written estimate, and have them explain the services listed in the estimate in detail. Carefully compare each estimate to see which company best suits your needs and budget.
