Moving is frequently a stressful and complicated time, and it's not a job that anyone really enjoys. Even if you're moving to a smaller town (like Sonoma) with fewer crowds, you might be worried about navigating around a big truck and all of your possessions. Depending on when you move, low temperatures may impact your plans, resulting in more stress.
You can eliminate your stress by using our carefully crafted list of Sonoma's best movers, who can help make your move hassle-free.

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:
The first step in picking a company is determining if you're better off with a national or local mover. As shown above, different types of movers are suited for different sorts of moves. You also will need to choose between a self-service or full-service moving company. Both types of companies provide trucks and drivers. However, a full-service mover can also offer packing and loading services, while self-service companies do not. The type of mover you choose will depend on your budget and how much you hate packing boxes.
Next, you can look to see which movers near you meet the licensing requirements for movers in California. You can also look for reviews online and take a look at the company's BBB rating. All of the companies on our list of the best movers in Sonoma are well-reviewed and chosen by our experts.
Once you've found a handful of companies that you like, you can start getting estimates from them. It is best to reach out to at least one or two of the companies from our list above. When you do speak with a mover, make sure you explain all the services that you're going to need. You should also verify that the company provides you with a "binding estimate." Otherwise, it may be subject to change.
One of the most important questions you have is how much your move will cost. The typical hourly fee for moving in Sonoma is as follows:
Today's Homeowner has found the top mover in your area to be Robb & Messer Moving and Storage.
We use several different criteria to determine which movers in Sonoma are the best ones. They include:
Both cost and convenience are 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 8,441 students attending college within 15 miles of Sonoma, you may want to avoid moving when semesters start in August and end in May.
You will also want to think about the weather conditions in the area. Sonoma tends to have moderate temperatures. As a result, you may want to move outside of the coldest months of the year, to avoid possible icy roads
A few signs that you shouldn't use a specific mover include:
To ensure you get your desired pickup and delivery times, you should book moving services as far in advance as possible, ideally four to six weeks before your moving day.
Sonoma's cost of living index is 178.5. This figure considers mortgage or rent payments, food, childcare, transportation, and other essential expenses. (100.0 is the national average.)
The median home price in Sonoma is 974603, while the average monthly rent is about $3,051.
