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:
First, you'll have to determine if you need a national or a local mover. Different types of moves necessitate different kinds of experience, as shown above. You'll also have to choose between a self-service or full-service mover. Self-service moving companies provide a truck and a driver, but you're expected to have everything packed and ready when they arrive. A full-service mover will provide packing services, which can be great if you dread packing boxes.
Once you know what you need, find which movers meet Arizona's mover licensing requirements. Other methods by which to research a moving company's credibility include searching for reviews online and checking its rating on the BBB website. Every company on our list of the best movers in Yuma is well-reviewed and selected by our team of experts.
After you've found a few companies you like, you can begin asking for estimates. It is recommended that you reach out to at least one or two of the companies on our list above. When you do speak with a mover, make sure that you explain all the services you think you'll require. Also, verify that the estimate you receive is a "binding estimate," because otherwise it may be subject to change.
Something that many people worry about when they're thinking about moving is the price tag. In Yuma, the typical hourly cost for movers is:
We've determined the top mover in your area to be Horizon Moving Systems.
To decide which movers in Yuma are the best, our team asks a lot of questions, including:
When you are deciding when to move, you'll want to consider both cost and convenience. Moving during the summer is generally more expensive, due to how many people move during this time. Traffic may also be heavier during these months.
You'll also want to think about the weather. Yuma's temperatures 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.
Begin the process by visiting the company's website. Once you discover what kinds of services the mover offers, read reviews of the company on other sites such as the BBB, Google, Trustpilot, or Reddit.
You can also ask for references from people who used the mover in the past.
Many moving companies have special services for large, expensive items. When you're getting estimates from each company on your shortlist, ask them about these services and ensure the team will have the necessary tools on the truck. You should also ask about insurance options that can protect you if your items get lost, damaged, or stolen.
