Today's Homeowner looks at dozens of datapoints on moving companies to come up with our data-driven rankings. It's not possible for a company to pay for preferential treatment in our rankings. We look at the following key factors in determining who should top our list:
The first step in deciding on a company is determining if you need a local or national mover. As illustrated above, different types of moves need the expertise of different movers. You also will need to choose between a full-service or self-service moving company. Both types of companies provide trucks and the people to drive them. However, a full-service mover can also offer packing and loading services, while self-service companies do not. The company that you ultimately pick will depend on your budget and how badly you want to avoid packing boxes.
Some good ways to learn about a company's reputation are through online reviews and the BBB. You can also discover which movers near you meet all of Alabama's licensing requirements for movers. Every company on our list of Guntersville's best movers is well-reviewed and selected by our expert team.
Once you have your options narrowed down to just a few companies, you can start reaching out to them. We suggest reaching out to two or more of the moving companies from our list above. Make sure to review all the services you're going to need when asking for an estimate. Also, confirm that they've given you a "binding estimate" – otherwise, the actual cost may be subject to change.

The best mover in Guntersville, according to Today's Homeowner, are Peppers Moving Co.

You also might encounter more traffic during these months. There are about 2,098 college students attending school within 15 miles of Guntersville, so you may wish to avoid moving in May and August, when they will be moving.
You'll also want to think about the weather. Temperatures in Guntersville tend to be hot. Your move will likely be inconvenient and possibly dangerous if you move on a day where the weather is too hot.
To check a mover's reputation, you can:
If you're moving to a different home in Guntersville, choose a local company. They'll be more familiar with the area. If you're moving to Guntersville from afar, a national company is best, as they have more tools and experience to handle long-distance moves.
