Our Favourite Season to Move from a St Catharines moving company

If you are starting to look into moving and aren’t sure what season to choose, below is a list of all of the reasons why Fall may be the best time to book your St Catharines move. Our St Catharines moving company is available year-round, however, Fall is one of our favourite times to book moves in the region.

Why is Fall the best season to move in St. Catharines?

1. Still amazing weather for moving

With some exceptions, Fall is still a beautiful time of year for weather in the Niagara region. That is why our St Catharines moving company, Bob the Mover Inc., suggests you book your move during the fall months. The heat from the Summer has come and gone which means your valuables are better temperature-controlled and your movers are not heat-exhausted. The snowy months also have not started so driving conditions are good and furniture won’t be getting damaged from the weather.

Worried you still might experience some bad weather? Consider using our reusable moving bins. Using our bins helps you to avoid damaging your items, the hassles of repacking broken boxes, and limiting wear and tear on your items, especially if you are dealing with an unexpected rainy day. Overall, our moving bins are easy to pack, making moves more efficient and saving space on your moving trucks.

2. Less competition for dates

As many people have already completed their moves during the summer months and the back-to-school moving is already done, mid-late Fall allows for flexible availability on booking dates. That means you should have less competition for your preferred moving date when booking your St Catharines moving company.

3. All settled in for the Holidays

Another great reason to move in the Fall is it allows you to be fully settled in by the time the holidays come around. The holiday season is often busy with family, company, and social events. As such, having your home all unpacked, items placed appropriately, and undisrupted use of your space is essential. Pro tip from our St Catharines moving company: make sure to leave your holiday decorations at the front of your storage areas in order of season for easy access when decorating, and rotate the boxes as you move through each holiday.

4. Off-season for Home Purchases

Fall is also a great time for off-season home purchases. We are starting to see declines in the real estate market throughout the Niagara Region. So shopping for a home in the cooler months might allow you to get a better deal on your new home purchase.

5. Kids are back in school

If you are a parent, you know the fall months often free up time in your days to get things checked off your to-do list that the Summer break just didn’t allow for. With kids back in school and routines in place, planning a move in the Fall can be a little easier and less of a hassle.

6. Less competing demands

Similar to point five, the Fall months often slow down our social calendars, create more structure in our days, and reduce our competing schedule demands. Before we ramp up again for the holiday months, winter vacations, and special events; Fall allows a window of opportunity to complete a big move without sacrificing precious Summer vacation weekends or missing out on holiday parties.

This is the best moving experience we ever had. Bob's team was very friendly, moved our items in no time. We had several heavy furnitures, they knew exactly how to move them at ease. I highly recommend Bob and his team. I couldn't thank them enough for doing such a great job. Thank you guys!!

Bob the Mover was an excellent moving company to work with. They were courteous, prompt and there were no hidden fees or surprises. They worked expertly to efficiently pack my storage unit, ensuring that my belongings fit securely and safely, making the most of the space. They were respectful of my belongings and my home, and I will definitely be using them again when I need movers. Thank you so much for making a stressful move so easy!

It was the best experience I have had with movers. They were on time, friendly, very professional and efficient. They obviously care about what they do.

Incredible moving company. Definitely top shelf. You can't really ask for any better. These guys were super professional, very friendly, quick, arrived right on time and took care of all my stuff, no extra scratches 😉 We had some interesting conversations along the way about similar interests and had fun while still getting the job done in a quick and timely fashion. This guy hires good men, the screening process must be rigorous. If you want your stuff handled with care and consideration, call Bob the Movers! You won't regret it!

November 19th, 2022 - the day of my move from my home in Niagara Falls to my new home in Thorold, we found ourselves in a foot of snow with more on the way, high winds and extreme cold!! The four young men arrived on time and were ready for the hard work of loading and carefully taking my furniture onto their truck. (Using moving blankets and strapping, mindful of not damaging the flooring and walls and my furniture) Arrived at my new address in a timely manner and again taking care moving all furniture and setting up beds and other furniture requiring set up! One piece, a large leather couch required 2 men to carefully maneuver through a narrow doorway at the bottom of the stairs into the family room needing at least a half hour of time without damage to walls, ceiling, doorway, flooring or furniture! Remarkable young men. I’d highly recommend “Bob The Mover” for your next move!
