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 moves are best handled by different movers. The first step in choosing a moving company is determining whether a national or local company will work best for your needs. You'll also need to figure out if you require a full-service or self-service mover. If you hate packing boxes, you will probably want to find a full-service company that provides packing services. If you don't mind packing yourself, you might hire a self-service mover, which will provide a truck and driver but not help pack your things.
Next, you can find out which movers near you meet the licensing requirements for movers in California. You can also search for reviews online and take a look at the company's BBB rating. Every company on our list of Sunnyvale's best movers is well-reviewed and selected by our expert team.
Once you've narrowed your list down to a few companies, you can begin the process of asking for estimates. It is recommended that you speak to at least one or two of the companies from our list above. When talking to a potential provider, be sure that you explain all of the services you think you'll require.
