Moving Companies Brace for Possible Record Number of Holiday Moves

LAS VEGAS - Nov. 11, 2021 - PRLog -- Between remote work opportunities, rising rent rates, and mass migration out of densely populated areas, 2021 has been an unprecedented year for moving trends. According to the Neighbor 2020-2021 American Migration Report, more than 20% more people have planned to move in 2021 compared to 2020. That leaves moving companies ramping up for what might turn into a record number of holiday moves.

If you are entertaining a move this holiday season, keep these things in mind:

Make Arrangements Further in Advance – With national moves on the rise, families could find themselves in a timing crunch. Start coordinating your move early to make time for scheduling and packing.

Coordinate Your Donations – Many people donate bulkier items in advance of their move. With charities receiving a lot of contributions during the holiday season, they might not have room in their warehouse. Plan ahead with your donations, so you don't get stuck with unwanted items.

Prepare for Celebration – Consider packing your kitchen and holiday decorations last so these items are easy to access when you arrive at your destination. Though everything else may be in boxes, your new home can be festive and ready for hosting. This can make it seem more like the holidays, even if you're not fully unpacked.
