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. Movers can further be split into full-service and self-service. Full-service moving companies provide packing and loading services, which can be well worth it if you're someone who hates packing boxes. A self-service moving company will provide a truck and a driver, but you're expected to have all your items packed when they arrive.
Once you know what you need, learn which Placentia movers meet California's licensing requirements for movers. Other easy ways to research a company's credibility include browsing online reviews and checking its rating on the BBB website. Every company on our list of the best movers in Placentia is well-reviewed and chosen by our team of experts.
Once you're down to a small list of companies to pick from, you can reach out to them and get a free estimate. We recommend reaching out to two or more of the companies on our list above. Be sure to go through all of the services that you're looking for, and to ensure that their estimate is a "binding estimate." Otherwise, it may be subject to change.
One of the biggest questions you may have is how expensive your move will be. The expected hourly cost for moving in Placentia is as follows:
The best mover in Placentia, according to Today's Homeowner, are Daly Movers.
We use multiple different criteria to determine which movers in Placentia are the best ones. They include:
Consider both cost and convenience when planning your move. The period from Memorial Day to Labor Day tends to be when most people move, which could be busier and more expensive for you. With about 284,348 students attending college within 15 miles of Placentia, you may want to avoid moving when semesters start in August and end in May.
Also consider the weather conditions in the area. Placentia tends to have hot temperatures. Therefore 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 moving companies have 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 tools on the truck. You should also ask about insurance options that can support you if your items get lost, damaged, or stolen.
To ensure you get the dates you want for pickup and delivery, you should book moving services as early in advance as possible, ideally four to six weeks before your moving day.
