Money-Saving Tips: Declutter before moving to reduce costs, since the less you have, the less expensive your move will be. Also consider moving during off-peak times (fall/winter) when rates are typically lower.

When selecting a moving company, focus on these key factors:

• Licensing and Insurance: Verify Arizona DOT registration, valid USDOT number for interstate moves, and proper insurance coverage. Check BBB ratings and online reviews.
• Services: Consider whether you need full-service moving, packing services, storage solutions, or specialty item handling for valuable items like pianos or artwork.
• Transparent Pricing: Get detailed written estimates with all fees explained upfront. Avoid companies requiring large deposits or unclear pricing structures.
• Professionalism: Look for prompt communication, professional appearance, proper equipment, and clear timelines.

Getting multiple quotes from licensed movers helps ensure you find the best value while protecting your belongings.

Book your move 6-8 weeks ahead during peak season (May-September) and 3-4 weeks during off-peak times (October-April). Last-minute bookings may cost 25-50% more.

Peak moving times include summer months, month-ends, weekends, and holidays. Early booking gets you better dates, lower rates, and less stress. Quality movers fill up quickly during Arizona's busy season, so advance planning ensures availability and smoother coordination of your move.
