Seasons

When is the best time to move to Colorado Springs?

Late spring to early fall. Colorado Springs is high country at the foot of Pikes Peak, and winter storms can slow trucks on the way and ice up hillside drives, so a winter move needs slack around delivery day. Plan an easy first day while you get used to the altitude.
