Planning around festival season

Most years, the Coachella and Stagecoach festivals bring heavy traffic to Indio over several weekends in April. If your move falls in April, tell us your dates early so we can plan the timing around the festival weekends.

Earlier in the year, the Riverside County Fair & National Date Festival runs from mid-February into early March at the county fairgrounds on Highway 111 and Arabia Street. Its Presidents’ Day parade sets off from that corner in the morning, so if you’re moving near the fairgrounds that week, mention it and we’ll time the drive around the fair.

Summer moves in Indio

From June through September, Indio’s average high is above 100°F, and July averages about 106°F, going by NOAA’s 30-year figures for the city. We plan summer jobs around the hottest hours of the day, so ask about timing when you book.

Downsizing into a 55+ community

North Indio, around Jefferson Street and Avenue 40, is home to Sun City Shadow Hills, a large age-restricted community, and in 2023 the city approved another 55+ community of up to 1,500 homes nearby. If you’re moving into a smaller home there, we can take furniture apart and put it back together, unpack for you, and keep what doesn’t fit in a sealed wooden vault. Ask your association for its move-in rules first, pass them on to us, and we’ll work to them.

This is the third move I’ve made with Desert Moving in the past decade and they get better and better with each move! The team showed up on time, packed quickly and accurately and were in control and precise in the delivery and unpacking!

Desert Moving was able to give us a fair quote and do the job the next day! Since our closing date got moved up they were able to accommodate us. Thanks!

The gentleman (3) who came to move me were on time and got straight to the job at hand. They did a wonderful job. I would recommend your company should I run across anyone who's moving. Your price was also reasonable. Thank you

Great staff from Abraham the estimator to Eddie and his 2 assistants who actually moved us. Everyone was professional, efficent and friendly. The move actual cost less than the estimate.

Moving day is always incredibly stressful. The moving team from Desert Moving made it so much better and easier — I am very grateful for that. The 3-person crew was diligent, professional, efficient and outstanding. My move was a success thanks to them.
