Moving Season Has Begun!!
What You Need to Know to Make Your Move Smooth, Affordable, and Stress-Free
As the days get longer and warmer, the moving trucks start rolling — and for good reason. May through September is peak moving season in the U.S., and Colorado is no exception. Whether you're relocating across town or starting fresh in a new state, this time of year is prime time for transitions.
But here’s the catch: Peak season comes with peak demand — and that means planning ahead, hiring the right crew, and knowing what to expect can save you money, headaches, and a whole lot of back pain.
At Fantastic Movers, we’ve been through enough summers to know the ins and outs of what makes a move smooth vs. what turns into a nightmare. Here’s your guide to conquering moving season the right way.
๐ Why Summer Is the Most Popular Time to Move
-
School’s out – Families take advantage of the break to switch homes without disrupting the academic year.
-
Weather is better – No icy stairs or snowstorms to deal with.
-
Lease turnovers are common – Many apartment and rental contracts end mid-year.
-
Job changes and relocations spike – Businesses often hire and relocate around Q2 and Q3.
That said, with everyone on the move, demand for trucks and skilled movers goes through the roof.
๐ง Tips for Winning the Summer Moving Game
1. Book Early
Don’t wait until the last minute. Good movers get booked weeks in advance during peak season.
Pro Tip: Try to lock in your date at least 4 weeks out, especially for weekends or end-of-month moves.
2. Purge Before You Pack
Moving season is the perfect time to lighten your load. Donate, sell, or toss anything you don’t want to drag to your new place.
You’ll save time, space, and moving costs.
3. Watch Out for Rogue Movers
Summer scams are real. Always check for:
-
USDOT registration (yes, we’re fully licensed)
-
Verified reviews (check our 5-star Google & Yelp ratings)
-
Transparent pricing with no hidden fees
๐ What Makes Fantastic Movers Different?
While anyone with a truck can call themselves a mover, we take pride in doing it right:
✅ Flat hourly rates starting at $80/hr
✅ Specialty moving – pool tables, hot tubs, pianos, safes
✅ Licensed and insured
✅ Friendly, punctual, and careful pros
✅ Denver, Aurora, Springs, Boulder, and beyond
We show up on time, wrap and stack like pros, and treat your belongings (and your home) like it’s our own.
๐งณ Moving During Peak Season? Here’s How to Prep Like a Pro
-
Label everything clearly
-
Pack an “Essentials” box with snacks, chargers, water, toilet paper, and tools
-
Take pictures of electronics before unplugging
-
Book elevators or loading zones in advance (especially for apartments)
๐ฆ Bonus: Should You DIY or Hire Movers?
If you’ve got a few friends, a tiny apartment, and a flexible schedule — go for it.
But if you’ve got stairs, fragile items, a tight timeline, or just want less stress, hiring pros like us is worth every dollar.
