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 want to decide if you're considering national or local movers. Different types of moves will need different kinds of experience, as described above. You'll also have to choose between a self-service or full-service moving company. Self-service moving companies provide a truck and a driver, but you're expected to have everything packed and ready when they arrive. A full-service moving company will provide packing services, which can be very helpful if you loathe packing boxes.
Next, you can look to see which moving companies near you meet the licensing requirements for movers in Delaware. You can also look for reviews online and look at the company's rating on the BBB. All of the companies on our list of Claymont's best movers are well-reviewed and chosen by our experts.
Once you're down to a small list of companies to pick from, you can talk to them and get a free estimate. It is best to speak with two or more of the companies from our list above. Be sure to tell them all of the services you may need, and to check that the estimate you get is a "binding estimate." Otherwise, it may be subject to change.

When you're getting estimates from each company on your shortlist, ask them about these services and ensure the team will have the required supplies on the truck. You should also ask about insurance options that can support you if your items get lost, damaged, or stolen.
You should choose a local mover if you aren't moving long-distance. Local movers will be familiar with Claymont and can provide more tailored services. However, national and international moving companies usually have more resources, better insurance, and a wider variety of services.
