Best time to move to Chicago
The summer months are peak moving season, but the best time to move to Chicago is just before and during the start of peak season. From April to June, Chicago sees a lot of good moving weather—and with decreased moving traffic, you’ll have better availability from Chicago moving services, as well as more options for housing.
