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 decide if you need a national or a local mover. Different types of moves necessitate different kinds of experience, as illustrated above. You'll also want to figure out if you require a full-service or self-service mover. If you loathe packing boxes, a full-service company that provides packing services may be your best bet. If you don't mind packing yourself, you may be happy with a self-service mover, which will provide a truck and driver but not help pack your things.
Next, you can look to see which movers near you meet the licensing requirements for movers in Connecticut. You can also look for reviews online and view the company's rating on the BBB. All of the companies on our list of Burlington's best movers are well-reviewed and selected by our team of experts.
Once your list is down to just a few companies, you can start reaching out to them. We suggest reaching out to at least one or two of the movers from our list above. Be sure to explain all the services you need when asking for an estimate. Also, confirm that you've received a "binding estimate" – otherwise, the actual cost may be subject to change.

The best mover in Burlington, according to Today's Homeowner, are CT Moving & Storage: Local, Residential, Commercial, Long Distance.
To find out which movers in Burlington are the best, our team asks a lot of questions, including:
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 20,050 students attending college within 15 miles of Burlington, you may want to avoid moving when semesters start in August and end in May.
You'll also want to think about the weather conditions in the area. Burlington 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
You should choose a local mover if you want a more personal experience. Local movers are more familiar with the area and can offer more tailored services. However, national and international moving companies usually have more resources, better insurance, and a wider variety of services.
To ensure you get the dates you want for pickup and delivery, you should book moving services as far in advance as possible, ideally four to six weeks before your moving day.
