Canadian winters in general are known to be stereotypically frigid with temperatures dipping well below the freezing range. Winter in Toronto can be particularly harsh thanks to the inevitable snowstorms, freezing rain, and dangerous driving conditions. After enduring a long, cold, harsh winter, most Torontonians are ready to fully embrace the milder weather conditions and beautiful sunshine. That’s why if you’re planning on relocating to Toronto, now is the time to do it. Moving to Toronto on a temporary or permanent basis is a lot more hassle-free in the spring and here’s why:
Tolerable and Mild Weather Conditions
We’ve already mentioned why moving to Toronto in the winter is less than ideal, so now let’s focus on the benefits of moving in the spring. Temperatures are milder, the sun is finally out of hibernation, and the flowers are blooming. All of these are great motivators to facilitate your move. You don’t have to contend with icy and dangerous driving conditions; nor do you have to force your friends to help you carry your belongings in the sweltering heat of the summer months.
While it’s true that spring weather can sometimes be unpredictable, it can also strike the perfect balance of mild temperatures so that it won’t be hard for you to drum up the help you need of your friends. Also, offering them pizza doesn’t hurt either.
Higher Chance of Selling Your Property and Finding a Place to Live
Real estate experts agree that the best time to put your home on the market is in the spring. It also happens to be the best time to look for a new place to live. Summer might be the busiest moving season, but spring is when most people prefer to relocate to Toronto. This is because they want to be settled into their new home by the time June and July roll around. The kids will be on their summer vacation and parents can focus on enjoying quality family time rather than worrying about unpacking boxes.
It’s Easier to Find Good Quality Movers
As mentioned, summer is typically the busiest moving season in Toronto because more people are able to take time off to dedicate to their move. The only problem is that most movers are usually booked during this time, which makes it difficult to schedule your move whenever it’s convenient for you. However, if you are moving to Toronto in the springtime, movers typically have more availability and will be able to accommodate your needs.
