In most situations, but there are exceptions, individuals and families know they are moving into or out of Denver well in advance of the actual planned move date. When the move is related to a job, there may be a shorter lead time of just a few weeks or months, but there is still typically some advance notice.
One of the big mistakes that many people make is to wait to contact movers in Denver until a couple of weeks before the move. If the move is in the peak moving season of late July through to late August, it can be very difficult to find a reputable company that has a truck and a crew, particularly for large residential moves or long-distance moves.
Local movers tend to be busy over the summer months as well, but they also have busy times throughout the year. These tend to be the first of the month and the middle of the month when many leases and rental agreements end.
What to Know
Before talking to moving companies for local or long-distance moves, it is important to know specific information. The dates of the move will be important, specifically when you need to move out of your current residence.
It will also be important to know the location you will be moving as well as when you can move in. This will help the movers in determining if there may be a need for storage or other types of accommodations.
As Early As Possible
It is helpful for the moving company to have as much advanced notice as possible when planning your move. For long-distance moves, there will be the need to coordinate the shipment as close as possible to your desired arrival dates.
It will also be important to reserve a truck and a crew to be able to arrive on your planned moving date and have you out of the residence to comply with your lease or your home closing.
