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 need to figure out if you require a full-service or self-service moving company. If you dread the thought of packing boxes, you will likely want to use a full-service company that offers packing services. If you don't mind packing yourself, you might prefer a self-service mover, which will provide a truck and driver but not help pack your things.
Next, you can look to see which movers near you meet the licensing requirements for movers in California. You can also search for reviews online and view the company's BBB rating. Every company on our list of Laguna Beach's best movers is well-reviewed and selected by our team of experts.
Once you've narrowed it down to a small list of companies to pick from, you can contact them and ask about a free estimate. We recommend reaching out to at least two of the companies from our list above. Be sure to explain to them all of the services that you'll need, and to ensure that their estimate is a "binding estimate." Otherwise, it may be subject to change.
You may be wondering how much you're going to spend moving. In Laguna Beach, the typical hourly cost for movers is:
The best mover in Laguna Beach, according to Today's Homeowner, are Qshark Moving Company.
We use various different criteria to determine which movers in Laguna Beach are the best ones. They include:
Both cost and convenience are important when planning your move. Most people move from Memorial to Labor Day, which could be busier and more expensive for you. With about 63,473 students attending college within 15 miles of Laguna Beach, you may want to avoid moving when semesters start in August and end in May.
Also consider the weather conditions in the area. Laguna Beach 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.
Some moving companies offer specialty services for items like pianos, antiques, and other valuables. During the estimate process, tell the company's representative about the high-value items you need to move. Ensure that the team has the proper experience and resources to move your valuables, and make sure that they have superior insurance in case of loss, theft, or damage.
A few signs that you shouldn't use a specific mover include:
The average annual high in Laguna Beach can get up to 70°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.
Laguna Beach's cost of living index is 226.6. This figure considers mortgage or rent payments, food, childcare, transportation, and other essential expenses. (100.0 is the national average.)
