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:
First, you'll need to figure out if you're going to need a local or a national mover. Different kinds of moves will need different sets of skills, as described above. You will also have to figure out if you want a full-service or self-service moving company. If you hate packing boxes, a full-service company that offers packing services may be your best bet. If you don't mind taking care of the packing on your own, you may hire a self-service mover, which will supply a truck and a driver but not help pack your things. Once you know what you need, find which moving companies meet California's licensing requirements for movers. Other methods by which to research a company's credibility include reading online reviews and checking its rating on the BBB website. All of the companies on our list of Lomita's best movers are well-reviewed and selected by our experts. Once your list is down to just a few companies, you can start reaching out to them. It is best to reach out to at least a couple of the movers on our list above. Be sure to review all the services you think you'll need when you get an estimate. Also, check that you've gotten a "binding estimate" – otherwise, the actual cost may be subject to change.

You should choose a local mover if you would prefer a more personal experience. Local movers will be familiar with Lomita and can offer more tailored services. However, national movers usually have more resources, better insurance, and a wider variety of services.
To ensure you get your desired pickup and delivery times, you should book moving services as early in advance as the company allows, often four to six weeks before your moving day.
