Moving at the weekend: What to consider?

A move at the weekend is a possibility especially for working people. In addition to a stressful workday, it is hardly possible for them to realize a move during the week, both in terms of time and logistics. Bridge days in connection with weekdays are particularly popular, because they provide additional useful time, especially if you want to manage a move on the weekend according to the do-it-yourself principle. As a general rule, moving on Sundays and public holidays is not allowed, which is why moving on the weekend means moving on a Saturday. We’ll tell you what you should also bear in mind and how you can make the best of a weekend move, despite any peculiarities.

Moving at the weekend: This is what you should pay attention to

When moving at the weekend, you should first find out about the applicable regulations and rest periods. These can vary depending on the federal state, which is particularly important if you are moving into a new federal state when you change your place of residence. Regulations in this regard are recorded under the so-called holiday law and also include rest periods that must also be observed when moving at the weekend.

Once you’ve figured out the parameters of your weekend move, you can start planning. A timely and well thought-out plan in advance will make the process of your move much easier. For example, if you use the weekdays for organization and preparations, you can easily accomplish the actual move on the weekend. Then, on Sunday, you can already put your feet up and enjoy your new home.

Part of prudent planning for your weekend removal is taking care of official business in a timely manner, as some government agencies like to be notified of a new residence in advance. To make this step easier for you, we have compiled the practical moving checklist for offices as well as the moving checklist for change of address for you. In addition, you should request no-stopping zones in front of your homes for your weekend move. This will allow your transportation to be loaded and unloaded quickly during your weekend move. Be sure to allow enough time for your application to be approved.

Just as with logistics, it is a good idea to make the necessary arrangements early on so that you can effortlessly complete your move on the weekend. For example, a few weeks before the move, start spending about an hour a day packing boxes or sorting out belongings. As a result, you can simultaneously work through your tasks piece by piece without losing much of your free time and carry out the actual move quite calmly on the weekend.

Finally, we encourage you to get help with your weekend move. For example, ask your family and friends who can support you. At this point, a move on the weekend is again an advantage for you, because probably most of your acquaintances have time to participate. Alternatively, you can of course hire a professional moving company for your weekend move.
