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:
Different types of movers are suited for different sorts of moves. The first step in choosing a moving company is deciding whether a local or national mover is best suited to your needs. You'll also want to figure out if you want to hire a full-service or self-service mover. If you hate packing boxes, you will probably want to use a full-service company that provides packing services. If you don't mind taking care of the packing on your own, you might be happy with a self-service mover, which will provide a truck and driver but not packing assistance.
Next, you can check which moving companies near you meet the licensing requirements for movers in California. You can also browse online reviews and take a look at the company's BBB rating. Every company on our list of the best movers in Los Altos Hills is well-reviewed and picked by our expert team.
After narrowing down your list, you can begin calling companies. We recommend that you reach out to at least one or two of the movers from our list for estimates. Be sure that you explain all of the services you will need for your move. Also, be sure that the estimate they provide is a "binding estimate" – otherwise, the actual cost may be subject to change.

A few signs that you shouldn't use a specific mover include:
The best time to book your move is four to six weeks in advance. If you book later, you may pay more and have a harder time finding available movers.
