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 better for your needs. Movers can also be divided into full-service and self-service movers. A full-service moving company provides packing and loading services, which can be well worth it if you hate packing boxes. Self-service movers provide a truck and a driver, but you're expected to have your things packed when they get there.
Some of the ways by which you might learn about a company's reputation are through online reviews and the BBB. You can also discover which movers near you meet all of Idaho's licensing requirements for movers. All of the companies on our list of the best movers in Star are well-reviewed and picked by our experts.
Once you've put together a small list of companies to choose from, you can get in touch with each of them and ask about a free estimate. We recommend reaching out to two or more of the companies on our list above. Make sure that you tell them all of the services you may need, and to verify that the provided estimate is a "binding estimate." Otherwise, it may be subject to change.
You might be wondering how much you might spend moving. In Star, the usual hourly cost for movers is:
We've determined the top mover in your area to be Valley Custom Moving.
We use several different criteria to determine which movers in Star 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 is generally more expensive, as most people move during this season. Traffic may also be heavier during these months. You will probably want to avoid moving in May or August specifically, as the 8,476 college students attending school within 15 miles of Star will be moving in those months as well.
You'll also want to think about the weather. Star's temperatures tend to be warm. Your move may be more inconvenient during the warmer months, depending on how hot the day is.
Many movers have special services for large, expensive items. When you're getting estimates from the companies on your shortlist, ask them about these services and ensure the team will have the necessary equipment on the truck. You should also ask about insurance options that can protect you if your items get lost, damaged, or stolen.
The most optimal 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.
