- Weather can greatly impact the convenience and success of a move. Springtime in most regions of the country experience fair weather many days. Schlepping heavy boxes on hot days, or wet, cold wintry ones is no fun!
- Availability of moving companies is likely to be better. The summer time is traditionally thought to be a great time to move, which means moving companies may be busier, right? Get a head start and book early!
- Kids are still in school so if you need their help, plan to move during spring break, or if you want the kids otherwise preoccupied, school days are ideal. Spring is a win-win!
- Settle in to your new home in time for summer vacationing and holiday entertaining! Why give up your vacation week to do this job in the heat? Get the hard work over in Spring's fair weather, then enjoy your well deserved vacation in the sun! A spring time housewarming party out on your new deck sure sounds nice, and you won't miss out on any holiday festivities because you'll be all settled in.
- New beginnings are irresistible and that's what spring's all about. Need I say more?

Here are a few of the best reasons why a move in spring makes great sense:
