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:
To choose a moving company, you'll first need to finalize the details of your move to know whether a local or national mover is better for your needs. You'll also have to choose between a self-service or full-service mover.

A full-service moving company will offer packing services, which can be very helpful if you dread 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.
