As you are getting ready for a big move, one of the things that you should consider is the day that you are going to move. Many people may not have a lot of choice in the dates because they need to move quickly and get out of the apartment and into the new one by a certain date. But if you do have some freedom, picking the right day can help you have enough time to get the move done, and  can save you some money as well.

It is common for a lot of potential tenants to do a move on a Friday. They will take the one day of work and the have the whole weekend to get all of their stuff moved and hopefully unpacked by the time they have to go to work on Monday. If you are limited on time and this is all that will really fit into your schedule, then you should go ahead and do that and not worry about it. But for a lot of people, moving on a Friday is not the best idea.

The first issue is that there are a lot of other people moving at the same time. If you are trying to get a Friday date, especially at the last minute, you will either find that there are no movers ready to go or you will have to pay a much higher price to get the work done. For those who are already tired of the high costs of moving, this can be a headache that they would rather avoid.

Another issue is that if you do hire movers and there is something that happens to your valuable goods or some of your items, you will have to wait until that following Monday to contact them and get the claim done. This can leave you with some anxiety and is not a lot of fun while you try to unpack. Overall, it is often best to pick a different day to help with doing a big move.
