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 determine if you're considering national or local movers. Different kinds of moves will need different kinds of experience, as illustrated above. You'll also have to choose between a self-service or full-service mover. Self-service moving companies provide a truck and a driver, but you will be expected to have all of your things packed and ready when they get to you. A full-service mover will offer packing services, which can be great if you hate packing boxes.
Once you know what you need, find which movers meet California's licensing requirements for movers. Other easy ways to research a moving company's credibility include searching for reviews online and checking its reputation via the BBB. Every company on our list of Sierra Madre's best movers is well-reviewed and picked by our expert team.
Once you have your options narrowed down to just a few companies, you can start reaching out to them. It is best to reach out to at least one or two of the moving companies from our list above. Be sure to explain all the services you're going to need when you ask for an estimate. Also, check that you've gotten a "binding estimate" – otherwise, the actual cost may be subject to change.
One of the most important questions you may have is how expensive your move will be. The usual hourly fee for moving in Sierra Madre is as follows:
The best mover in Sierra Madre, according to Today's Homeowner, are Pink Transfer, Inc. Moving & Storage.
We use several different criteria to determine which movers in Sierra Madre are the best ones. They include:
Cost and convenience are both important 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 172,797 students attending college within 15 miles of Sierra Madre, you may want to avoid moving when semesters start in August and end in May.
Also consider the weather conditions in the area. Sierra Madre tends to have hot temperatures. This means that 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.
A few signs that you shouldn't use a specific mover include:
You should choose a local mover if you aren't moving long-distance. Local movers will be familiar with Sierra Madre and can provide more tailored services. However, national and international moving companies usually have more resources, better insurance, and a wider variety of services.
High temperatures in Sierra Madre can reach 71°F. The area has below-average daily rainfall and low to no snowfall in the winter months.
Sierra Madre's cost of living index is 179.5. This figure considers mortgage or rent payments, food, childcare, transportation, and other essential expenses. (100.0 is the national average.)
