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 deciding on a company is determining whether a local or national mover better fits your needs. As outlined above, different types of movers are better for different types of moves. You will also have to decide if you want a full-service or self-service moving company. If you dread the thought of packing boxes, you will probably want to use a full-service company that offers packing services. If you don't mind packing yourself, you may hire a self-service mover, which will supply a truck and a driver but not help pack your things.
Next, you can look to see which movers near you meet the licensing requirements for movers in Colorado. You can also look for reviews online and view the company's BBB rating. Every company on our list of the best movers in Grand Junction is well-reviewed and chosen by our team of experts.
Once you have a small list of companies to select from, you can get in touch with each of them and get a free estimate. We highly recommend speaking with at least two of the companies on our list above. Make sure that you tell them all of the services that you're looking for, and to check that the provided estimate is a "binding estimate." Otherwise, it may be subject to change.
You may be wondering how much you should expect to spend on your move. In Grand Junction, the usual hourly cost for movers is:
We've determined the top mover in your area to be Allied Van Lines.
We use a variety of different criteria to determine which movers in Grand Junction are the best ones. They include:
Consider both cost and convenience when planning your move. The majority of people move from May to August, which could be busier and more expensive for you. With about 9,030 students attending college within 15 miles of Grand Junction, 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. Grand Junction tends to have moderate temperatures. Therefore you may want to move outside of the coldest months of the year, to avoid possible icy roads
Some moving companies provide specialty services for items like pianos, antiques, and other valuables. During the estimate process, tell the company's representative about the high-value items you need to move. Ensure that the team has the proper experience and resources to move your valuables, and make sure that they have superior insurance in case of damage, theft, or loss.
The most optimal time to book your move is four to six weeks beforehand. If you book later, you may have a harder time finding available movers, or pay more for their services.
