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:
Different types of moves work best with different movers. The first step in selecting a moving company is deciding whether a local or national mover is best. You'll also have to choose between a self-service or full-service moving company. A self-service moving company will provide a truck and a driver, but you will be expected to have everything packed and ready when they arrive. A full-service moving company will offer packing services, which can be great if you dread packing boxes.
You can learn about a company's reputation using online reviews or the BBB. You may also want to learn which movers near you meet the mover licensing requirements in Georgia. All of the companies on our list of Carrollton's best movers are well-reviewed and picked by our team of experts.
Once you're down to a small list of companies to choose from, you can contact 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 go through all of the services you may need, and to ensure that the estimate you get is a "binding estimate." Otherwise, it may be subject to change.
One of the biggest questions you have is how much your move will cost. The typical hourly cost for moving in Carrollton is as follows:
The best mover in Carrollton, according to Today's Homeowner, are Elite Relocation Services.
To find out which movers in Carrollton are the best, our team asks a lot of questions, including:
When picking a date to move, you'll want to think about both cost and convenience. Moving during summertime tends to be more expensive, as most people move during this season. 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 15,900 college students attending school within 15 miles of Carrollton will be moving in those months as well.
You'll also want to think about the weather. Temperatures in Carrollton 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 kinds of services the mover offers, read reviews of the company on other sites like the BBB, Google, Reddit, or Trustpilot.
You can also ask for references from people who used the mover in the past.
The best time to book your move is four to six weeks beforehand. If you book later, you may have a harder time finding available movers, or pay more for their services.
