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 movers are better for different types of moves. The first step in selecting a moving company is deciding whether a local or national company is best. You'll also need to figure out if you want to hire a full-service or self-service mover. If you dread the thought of packing boxes, a full-service company that provides packing services may be your best bet. If you don't mind doing your own packing, you might instead go with a self-service mover, which will provide a truck and driver but not packing assistance. Next, you can look to see which moving companies near you meet the licensing requirements for movers in Illinois. You can also read online reviews and take a look at the company's BBB rating. All of the companies on our list of the best movers in Addison are well-reviewed and selected by our expert team. Once you've put together a small list of companies to select from, you can reach out to them and ask about a free estimate. We strongly suggest talking to at least two of the companies from our list above. Make sure that you tell them about all of the services that you'll need, and to ensure that the provided estimate is a "binding estimate." Otherwise, it may be subject to change.
Something that many people worry about as they prepare to move is the price tag. In Addison, the typical hourly cost for movers is:
The best mover in Addison, according to Today's Homeowner, are College Hunks Hauling Junk and Moving DuPage County.
To find out which movers in Addison are the best, our team asks many questions, including:
Many movers provide special services for large, expensive items. When you're getting estimates from each company 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 support you if your items get lost, damaged, or stolen.
A few signs that you shouldn't use a specific mover include:
The most optimal 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.
