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 right for your needs. You'll also have to choose between a self-service or full-service moving company. A self-service mover will provide a truck and a driver, but you'll need to have all of your things packed and ready when they get to you. A full-service moving company will provide packing services, which can be a way to ease your stress if you hate packing boxes.
Once you know what you need, find which local movers meet California's mover licensing requirements. Other easy ways to research a mover's credibility include searching for reviews online and checking its reputation via the BBB. All of the companies on our list of Newport Beach's best movers are well-reviewed and selected by our experts.
After you have narrowed your list down to just a few companies, you can begin getting estimates from them. We strongly suggest talking to at least one or two of the companies from our list above. When you do reach out, make sure that you explain all the services you think you'll require. You should also check that the estimate you're given is a "binding estimate" – otherwise, it may be subject to change.

The best mover in Newport Beach, according to Today's Homeowner, are Meathead Movers.
We use a variety of different criteria to determine which movers in Newport Beach are the best ones. They include:
When you are deciding when to move, you'll want to consider both cost and convenience. Moving during summertime is usually more expensive, as most people move during this season. You also might encounter more traffic during these months. You will probably want to avoid moving in May or August specifically, as the 103,441 college students attending school within 15 miles of Newport Beach will be moving in those months as well.
You'll also want to think about the weather. Temperatures in Newport Beach tend to be hot. Your move will likely be inconvenient and possibly dangerous if you move on a day where the weather is too hot.
Begin the process by visiting the company's website. Once you discover what the mover specializes in, read reviews of the company on other sites such as Reddit, Trustpilot, Google, or the BBB.
You can also ask for references from people who used the mover before.
If you're moving to a different home in Newport Beach, choose a local company. They'll be more familiar with the area. If you're moving to Newport Beach from afar, a national company is best, as they have more tools and experience to handle long-distance moves.
