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 selecting a company is determining if you need a local or national mover. As shown above, different types of movers are better for different types of moves. You'll also want to determine if you want to hire a full-service or self-service mover. If you loathe packing boxes, a full-service company that provides packing services may be best for you. If you don't mind doing your own packing, you might prefer a self-service mover, which will provide a truck and a driver but not help with packing.
Next, you can check which movers near you meet the licensing requirements for movers in Connecticut. You can also browse online reviews and view the company's rating on the BBB. All of the companies on our list of Waterbury's best movers are well-reviewed and chosen by our expert team.
Once you've narrowed your list down to a few companies, you can begin asking for estimates. We recommend reaching out to at least one or two of the companies from our list above. When you do reach out, make sure you explain all of the services you'll need. Also, verify that you are given a "binding estimate" – otherwise, it may be subject to change.
