Local moves happen more frequently than interstate moves, according to recent data from the Census Bureau. In Tulsa, that's no exception. In fact, of the over 36,000 people who moved into the Tulsa metro area between 2011 and 2015, the majority were residents moving from one county in Green Country to another.
If you're moving to another home in the Tulsa metro area, look for a local Tulsa mover to keep your costs down and give you peace of mind that you're working with a reputable company. Local movers generally charge on an hourly basis, and they may charge an additional fee to cover the cost of getting the movers from their office to your location. Make sure to ask about additional fees upfront so you aren't surprised. Plan on your Tulsa moving company to take anywhere from 2-10 hours to complete your move, depending on how many things you're moving and the distance between your current home and your new home.
The moving business functions seasonally, with the summer months being the most popular times to move and the winter months getting the least action. If you're moving with kids and switching schools, then it might make sense to make your Tulsa move in the summer.
If, however, you're like the majority of households and are moving to a new home within the same ZIP code, consider making the move during the fall or winter months. You'll save money, since that's the offseason for every moving company and prices are lower. You'll also get a better experience, since the movers are less likely to be overworked and exhausted during the winter months than when they're pulling double shifts in the summer. In Tulsa, a winter move is also a good idea so you don't have to deal with the sweltering heat of the summer.
