Plan around closings and the school year

McLean moves follow house sales and the school calendar, and a big house needs more lead time than an apartment.

  • Wall calendar with a day circled

    Book 3 to 4 weeks out

    A big house needs packers and a full crew on the same days. More notice means the dates you want.

  • Sun

    Spring selling season

    April through June is when most McLean houses change hands.

  • Schoolhouse with a bell tower

    Before school starts

    Late July and August fill up with families moving before the first day of school.

  • Price tag

    Fridays and Saturdays

    Always more expensive than weekdays. A midweek move saves money.
