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 will also have to figure out if you want a full-service or self-service mover. If you are someone who hates packing boxes, a full-service company that provides packing services may be your best bet. If you don't mind packing yourself, you might instead go with a self-service mover, which will supply a truck and a driver but not help with packing.
Once you know what you need, find which local movers meet Georgia's licensing requirements for movers. Other ways to research a moving company's credibility include searching for reviews online and checking its reputation via the BBB. All of the companies on our list of the best movers in Scottdale are well-reviewed and selected by our expert team.
Once you've found a handful of companies that you like, you can go about getting estimates from them. We recommend speaking to at least one or two of the companies from our list above. When you're speaking with a moving company, be sure that you explain all of the services you'll need. You should also check that you receive a "binding estimate," as otherwise it may be subject to change.
One of the most important questions you may have is how expensive your move will be. The usual hourly cost for moving in Scottdale is as follows:
Today's Homeowner has found the top mover in your area to be Estate Property Movers.
To figure out which movers in Scottdale are the best, our team asks a lot of questions, including:
When you're thinking about when to move, you'll want to take both cost and convenience into consideration. Moving during summertime is usually more expensive, as this is when most people move. You also might encounter more traffic during these months. You will probably want to avoid moving in May or August specifically, as the 106,862 college students attending school within 15 miles of Scottdale will be moving in those months as well.
There is also the weather to consider. Temperatures in Scottdale 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.
A few signs that you shouldn't use a specific mover include:
You should choose a local mover if you want a more personal experience. Local movers know the Scottdale area better and can offer more tailored services. However, national and international moving companies usually have more resources, better insurance, and a wider variety of services.
The average annual high in Scottdale can get up to 70°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.
The cost of a home in Scottdale will depend on various factors, such as the area of the city you want to live in, the size of the home, and the amenities it offers. The median home price in Scottdale is $300401.
If you choose to rent in Scottdale, the cost for an apartment is roughly $1,928 per month.
