If you’re curious to know when the best time to move in Sheffield is, we’ve got you covered! With 11% of removals occurring in July, it’s the most popular month to move house in this area. This is unsurprising as the summer months are often popular with the warmer weather, brighter days and school holidays making it an ideal time to pack up and move out.
Summer is also a favourite with the rest of the UK as August is the most popular day to move house overall. Take advantage of the longer days and use Compare My Move to beat the competition and compare a range of removal quotes from the most trusted Sheffield home movers.
The winter months are Sheffield’s least favourite time to move, with December coming in last with only 7% of removals occurring then. This may mean that some removal companies have more time slots available, but it’s important to also factor in the darker, colder days and also the Christmas holiday.
With 33.2% of Sheffield moves happening on Friday, it’s the most popular day to move house in this area. Booking during a weekend ensures you have plenty of days spare to recover before the working week starts. With less traffic and more free time, it’s easy to see how Friday and Saturday are some of the most popular days amongst movers.
However, with the start of the working week looming, Sunday is the least popular day to move house in Sheffield. Only 5.1% of Compare My Move users booked their removals for this day in Sheffield, not wanting to deal with the chaos of unpacking during the following week.
It's also important to note that Sundays also mean the closure of estate agent and conveyancers' offices, meaning less communication throughout the property chain. This could lead to further delays and is another reason why this day is often avoided amongst movers.
