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 are best handled by different movers. The first step in choosing a moving company is deciding whether a local or national company is best. Movers can also be divided into full-service and self-service companies. Full-service movers provide packing and loading services, which can be great if you loathe packing boxes. Self-service movers provide a truck and driver, but you're expected to have all your items packed when they get there.
Next, you can check which moving companies near you meet the licensing requirements for movers in Illinois. You can also look for reviews online and take a look at the company's rating on the BBB. All of the companies on our list of the best movers in Benton are well-reviewed and picked by our team of experts.
Once you're down to a small list of companies to select from, you can get in touch with each of them and inquire about getting a free estimate. We highly recommend speaking with at least two of the companies on our list above. Be sure to tell them all of the services that you'll need, and to verify that your estimate 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 usual hourly fee for moving in Benton is as follows:

To figure out which movers in Benton 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, due to how many people move during this time. Traffic may also be heavier during these months. You will probably want to avoid moving in May or August specifically, as the 26,295 college students attending school within 15 miles of Benton will be moving in those months as well.
You'll also want to think about the weather. Temperatures in Benton tend to be cool. Your move may be more difficult during the cooler months, when roads may be icy.
To check a mover's reputation, you can:
A few signs that you shouldn't use a specific mover include:
Benton's cost of living index is 121.7. This figure considers mortgage or rent payments, food, childcare, transportation, and other essential expenses. (100.0 is the national average.)
