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 also will need to choose between a self-service or full-service moving company. Both kinds of movers provide trucks and drivers. However, full-service movers also provide packing and loading services, while self-service companies do not. Which you choose will depend on your budget and how much you hate packing boxes. You can learn about a company's reputation using online reviews or the BBB. You may also want to learn which movers near you meet the mover licensing requirements in California. Every company on our list of Danville's best movers is well-reviewed and selected by our experts. Once you have your options narrowed down to just a few companies, you can begin calling them. It is best to reach out to at least one or two of the moving companies from our list above. Be sure to review all the services you think you'll need when you get an estimate. Also, confirm that they've given you a "binding estimate" – otherwise, the actual cost may be subject to change.
Something that a lot of people worry about when they're thinking about moving is the price tag. In Danville, the typical hourly cost for movers is:
Today's Homeowner has found the top mover in your area to be Magic Moving & Storage, Inc.
To figure out which movers in Danville are the best, our team asks a lot of questions, including:
Consider both cost and convenience when planning your move. Most people move from Memorial to Labor Day, which could be busier and more expensive for you. With about 92,620 students attending college within 15 miles of Danville, you may want to avoid moving when semesters start in August and end in May.Also consider the weather conditions in the area. Danville tends to have hot temperatures. As a result, weather may not affect what time of year you move as much as it would in some other places. Still, you may not want to move in mid-summer, when extreme heat or humidity could rob you of energy.
To check a mover's reputation, you can:
If you're moving across town, choose a local company. They will be more familiar with the area. If you're moving to Danville from afar, a national company is best, as they have more experience moving large numbers of items across the country.
The average annual high in Danville can get up to 71°F, and the area is in the bottom third of the country when it comes to daily rainfall. Winters here yield extremely low (if any) snowfall.
Compared to a national average of 100.0, the cost of living index for Danville is 250.0. This index considers housing payments, childcare, food, transportation, and other crucial expenses.
