May is known as national moving month. This is because a lot of people, mostly families, take advantage of the summer weather, and time off school to relocate to their future forever home. Furthermore, with the increase of remote workers, people are looking into cities, countries, and places that would be better suited to their work environment and income since traveling to and fro the office is not necessary for them according to Moving Trends of 2023. Therefore, they can live anywhere as long as there is a stable internet connection. Also one of the moving trends in 2023 is that there may be more affordable housing as well as a growing job market to attract people to certain cities and towns.
Moving trends in the US may come and go but there are some that become stable over time. And here are the moving industry trends that do not plan to go away in 2023. The first moving trend when it comes to the US is that local moves are on the rise. More and more people living in the US are opting to move around the metropolitan area. Often aiming for the mixture of outdoors with modern conveniences that are the suburbs. In 2022, USPS said that about 84% of people moved around the same area while only about 28% moved out of their area.
As we have briefly mentioned, another moving trend that is coming through in 2023 is moving to the suburbs. Think of it this way, you would be able to have more space and be close to the city, while still being far away enough to not be overrun by it. Also, there are plenty of great school districts in suburban areas. Traveling to work may take some time to get used to but if you are a remote worker then it is not an issue, obviously. But, traveling to work may just require you to get up early to miss the traffic or catch the bus and not be late.
Furthermore, the idea of moving to the suburbs is such a millennial thing since a lot of them want to plant metaphorical roots. Also, they want a high quality of life with a low cost of living. This is undoubtedly difficult to find. But, it is a bit more likely to be found living in the suburbs it would seem.
The moving industry, like the rest of the world, was hit hard by the Pandemic of 2020. We are still getting over it in one way or another. The cost of moving hit a high due to many different factors such as labor shortages, supply chain disruptions, etc.
But, 2023 seems to be the time when the cost of moving will somewhat stabilize. The prices will stay where they are or maybe with some faith and luck go down. But, do not take our word for it. Just keep inflation in mind when looking at prices for moving. One way to save money and time with moving companies is by using moving platform apps. These moving apps can help you create your inventory list, and even give a virtual tour of your home without anyone stepping foot into it. But, more on this later.
Moving trend of 2023 that is also on the rise all over the world is that employees are slowly making their way back to the office. This means that there is a rise in commercial moves where businesses hope to expand while trying to turn into a hybrid workspace or convince their WFH employees to come back to the office.
When moving trends are ever-changing when it comes to the moving world, something that is not is moving advice. Here are some pointers to make your relocation as smooth as it can be. Also, while making you become prepared.
