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're considering national or local movers. Different kinds of moves require different kinds of experience, as described above. You'll also have to choose between a self-service or full-service mover. A self-service moving company will provide a truck and a driver, but you're expected to have all of your things packed and ready when they get there. Full-service movers provide packing services, which can be a way to ease your stress if you loathe packing boxes.
Next, you can look to see which movers near you meet the licensing requirements for movers in Florida. You can also read online reviews and take a look at the company's rating on the BBB. All of the companies on our list of Valrico'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 moving companies from our list above. Make sure to explain all the services you think you'll need when you ask for an estimate. Also, check that you've received a "binding estimate" – otherwise, the actual cost may be subject to change.
One of the biggest questions you may have is how much your move will cost. The usual hourly fee for moving in Valrico is:
The best mover in Valrico, according to Today's Homeowner, are Mt. Zion Moving & Storage.
We use various different criteria to determine which movers in Valrico are the best ones. They include:
When picking a date to move, you'll want to consider both cost and convenience. Moving during the summer months is usually more expensive, as this is when most people move. There also may be more traffic on the roads during these months. You will probably want to avoid moving in May or August specifically, as the 88,972 college students attending school within 15 miles of Valrico will be moving in those months as well.
Don't forget to think about the weather, too. Temperatures in Valrico 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.
If you're moving to a different home in Valrico, choose a local company. They will be more familiar with the area and could offer you faster service. If you're moving to Valrico from afar, a national company is best, as they have more experience moving large numbers of items across the country.
The best time to book your move is four to six weeks in advance. If you book later, you may have a harder time finding available movers, or pay more for their services.
The average annual high in Valrico can get up to 82°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.
