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 shown above, different types of moves need the expertise of different movers. You'll also have to choose between a self-service or full-service mover. A self-service moving company will provide a truck and a driver, but you're expected to have all of your things packed and ready when they get there. A full-service mover will provide packing services, which can be a boon if you hate packing boxes.
Next, you can find out which moving companies near you meet the licensing requirements for movers in California. You can also look for reviews online and view the company's BBB rating. All of the companies on our list of Imperial Beach's best movers are well-reviewed and picked by our experts.
Once you have a small list of companies to choose from, you can get in touch with each of them and get a free estimate. We strongly suggest talking to at least two of the companies on our list above. Make sure that you go through all of the services you may need, and to ensure that your estimate is a "binding estimate." Otherwise, it may be subject to change.

The best mover in Imperial Beach, according to Today's Homeowner, are Republic Moving & Storage.
We use multiple different criteria to determine which movers in Imperial Beach are the best ones. They include:
Cost and convenience are both important when planning your move. Most people move from Memorial to Labor Day, which could be busier and more expensive for you. With about 43,694 students attending college within 15 miles of Imperial Beach, you may want to avoid moving when semesters start in August and end in May.
You'll also want to think about the weather conditions in the area. Imperial Beach tends to have hot temperatures. Therefore 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.
Begin the process by visiting the company's website. Once you discover what the mover specializes in, look at reviews of the company on other sites like Reddit, the BBB, Trustpilot, or Google.
You can also ask for references from people who used the mover before.
You should choose a local mover if you want a more personal experience. Local movers are more familiar with the area and can offer more tailored services. However, national movers usually have more resources, better insurance, and a wider variety of services.
