Best day of the week to move

Tuesday through Thursday is cheaper in most US cities we price. Saturday at month-end is how you donate an extra 20% to peak demand.

Why Saturday costs more

Everyone’s lease ends then. Crews know. The hourly clock and the long-distance calendar both swell.

UK month-end Fridays and completion days behave the same way. Student mid-September in Manchester is its own tax.

If you cannot move midweek

Book earlier. Ask for an arrival window in writing. Do not stack a Saturday load with a building that only allows freight on weekdays.
