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 need to figure out if you want to hire a full-service or self-service moving company. If you hate packing boxes, you will likely want to find a full-service company that offers packing services. If you don't mind taking care of the packing on your own, you may hire a self-service mover, which will provide a truck and driver but not packing assistance.
You can find out about a company's reputation using online reviews or the BBB. You will also want to know which movers near you meet the licensing requirements for movers in Florida. Every company on our list of Panama City's best movers is well-reviewed and picked by our experts.
Once you have your options narrowed down to just a few companies, you can begin calling them. It is best to reach out to at least a couple of the movers from our list above. Make sure to explain all the services you're going to need when asking for an estimate. Also, confirm that they've given you a "binding estimate" – otherwise, the actual cost may be subject to change.
Cost is a big concern when thinking about moving. The usual amount one can expect to spend hourly for movers in Panama City is:
The best mover in Panama City, according to Today's Homeowner, are Motivated Movers.
We use several different criteria to determine which movers in Panama City are the best ones. They include:
When you're thinking about when to move, you'll want to take both cost and convenience into consideration. Moving during summertime is often more expensive, as this is when most people move. You also might encounter more traffic during these months. There are about 4,379 college students attending school within 15 miles of Panama City, so you may wish to avoid moving in May and August, when they will be moving.
You'll also want to think about the weather. Panama City's temperatures tend to be hot. Your move will likely be inconvenient and possibly dangerous if you move on a day where the weather is too hot.
Begin the process by visiting the company's website. Once you discover what the mover specializes in, look at reviews of the company on other sites like Trustpilot, Google, the BBB, or Reddit.
You can also ask for references from people who used the mover in the past.
You should choose a local mover if you want a more personal experience. Local movers know the Panama City area better and can provide more tailored services. However, national movers usually have more resources, better insurance, and a wider variety of services.
The average annual high in Panama City can get up to 77°F, and the area is in the top third of the country when it comes to daily rainfall. Winters here yield extremely low (if any) snowfall.
Panama City's cost of living index is 106.1. This figure considers mortgage or rent payments, food, childcare, transportation, and other essential expenses. (100.0 is the national average.)
