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 selecting a company is determining if you're better off with a national or local mover. As shown above, different types of movers are better for different types of moves. You also will have to choose between a self-service or full-service moving company. Both types of movers provide trucks and people to drive them. However, a full-service company can also offer 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 find out about a company's reputation via online reviews and the BBB. You will also want to know which movers near you meet the licensing requirements for movers in California. All of the companies on our list of the best movers in Live Oak are well-reviewed and chosen by our experts.
Once you've put together a small list of companies to pick from, you can talk to them and ask about a free estimate. It is best to speak with at least two of the companies on our list above. Be sure to tell them about all of the services you may need, and to verify that the provided estimate is a "binding estimate." Otherwise, it may be subject to change.
Cost is a big concern when thinking about moving. The typical amount one might expect to spend hourly for movers in Live Oak is:
The best mover in Live Oak, according to Today's Homeowner, are North American Van Lines.
We use a variety of different criteria to determine which movers in Live Oak 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 28,700 students attending college within 15 miles of Live Oak, you may want to avoid moving when semesters start in August and end in May.
Also consider the weather conditions in the area. Live Oak 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.
Many movers offer 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 required supplies on the truck. You should also ask about insurance options that can protect you if your items get lost, damaged, or stolen.
The best time to book your move is four to six weeks beforehand. If you book later, you may have a harder time finding available movers, or pay more for their services.
