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 figuring out whether a national or local mover is best. You'll also want to figure out if you require a full-service or self-service moving company. If you loathe packing boxes, you will probably want to use a full-service company that provides packing services. If you don't mind packing yourself, you might instead go with a self-service mover, which will provide a truck and a driver but not help pack your things. Some of the ways by which you might learn about the reputation of a moving company are through online reviews and the BBB. You may also want to know which movers near you meet all of Illinois' licensing requirements for movers. All of the companies on our list of Kankakee's best movers are well-reviewed and selected by our experts. After you've found a few companies you like, you can go about asking for estimates. It is best to speak to at least one or two of the companies on our list above. When you do speak with a mover, make sure you explain all the services that you're going to need. You should also check that you are given a "binding estimate" – otherwise, it may be subject to change.
