Seasonal Moving Guide: Navigating Summer Relocation Challenges

June 18, 2025

Moving during the summer offers the advantage of warm weather and school vacations, making it an ideal time for many families and businesses to relocate. Yet, the popularity of this season also brings unique challenges that require careful planning and consideration. At Matt's Movers, we understand the complexities of summer moves, from battling the sweltering heat to navigating peak season demand. With our expertise and personalized service, we're committed to ensuring your summer relocation is as smooth as possible. Here's your comprehensive guide to overcoming the challenges of a summer move, tailored to help you beat the heat and relocate with ease.


The Heat Factor: Staying Cool on Moving Day

Summer heat can be relentless, making it physically draining. Proper hydration is crucial—drink plenty of water to stay refreshed and energized. Start early in the morning to avoid the midday heat, and consider wearing light, breathable clothing. If possible, use fans or portable AC units to cool down your space during packing and loading.


Managing Peak Season Demand: Early Planning is Key

Summer is the peak season for moving companies, leading to higher demand and limited availability. Schedule your move as early as possible to secure your preferred date. Booking in advance also allows us to offer personalized services, ensuring your needs are fully met. If your schedule is flexible, consider moving mid-week or mid-month to find better availability and rates.


Protecting Belongings from Heat Damage

High temperatures can damage sensitive items such as electronics, candles, and certain types of furniture. Use insulated packing materials or climate-controlled moving trucks to protect your valuables. At Matt’s Movers, we provide specialized packing services to ensure your belongings are safe and sound throughout the journey.


Traffic and Travel: Timing Your Move

Summer is synonymous with road trips and vacations, leading to increased traffic. Plan your route to avoid congestion and potential delays. Consider moving on less busy travel days or consult our team for local insights. Our familiarity with areas like DeForest, Windsor, and Madison ensures a strategic approach to your relocation.


Budgeting for a Summer Move

Moving costs can peak during the summer due to demand. Create a detailed budget that considers all aspects of moving, from truck rentals and packing materials to potential overtime fees. Our transparent pricing at Matt's Movers provides you with clear estimates, avoiding any unwanted surprises.
