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 picking a company is determining if you need a local or national mover. As outlined above, different types of movers are suited for different sorts of moves.

Self-service moving companies provide a truck and driver, but you're expected to have all your items packed when they get there. Next, you can look to see which movers near you meet the licensing requirements for movers in California. You can also read online reviews and take a look at the company's BBB rating.
