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 mover. Self-service movers provide a truck and a driver, but you will be expected to have all of your things packed and ready when they get there. Full-service movers offer packing services, which can be a way to ease your stress if you loathe packing boxes.
Once you know what you need, find which moving companies meet California's mover licensing requirements. Other methods by which to research a company's credibility include reading online reviews and checking its reputation via the BBB. Every company on our list of the best movers in Windsor is well-reviewed and chosen by our expert team.
Once you've found a handful of companies that you like, you can begin the process of asking for estimates. It is best to speak to at least one or two of the companies from our list above. When talking to a company you are thinking of hiring, be sure that you explain all of the services you think you'll require. You should also verify that the company provides you with a "binding estimate," because otherwise it may be subject to change.
Something that many people worry about when moving is the price tag. In Windsor, the typical hourly cost for movers is:
The best mover in Windsor, according to Today's Homeowner, are Hansens Moving & Storage.
We use a variety of different criteria to determine which movers in Windsor are the best ones. They include:
When you are deciding when to move, you'll want to take both cost and convenience into consideration. Moving during summertime will likely be more expensive, as this is when most people move. You also might encounter more traffic during these months. You will probably want to avoid moving in May or August specifically, as the 20,334 college students attending school within 15 miles of Windsor will be moving in those months as well.
Don't forget to think about the weather, too. Windsor's temperatures tend to be warm. Your move may be more inconvenient during the warmer months, depending on how hot the day is.
Many movers provide special services for large, expensive items. When you're getting estimates from the companies on your shortlist, ask them about these services and ensure the team will have the necessary supplies on the truck. You should also ask about insurance options that can protect 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 the company allows, often four to six weeks before your moving day.
