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:
The first step in picking a company is determining if you're better off with a national or local mover. As illustrated above, different types of moves need the expertise of different movers. You also will need to choose between a self-service or full-service moving company. Both kinds of movers provide trucks and drivers. However, a full-service company can also provide packing and loading services, while self-service companies do not. The company that you ultimately pick will depend on your budget and how badly you want to avoid packing boxes.
Once you know what you need, find which moving companies meet Illinois' mover licensing requirements. Other ways to research a company's credibility include searching for reviews online and checking its reputation via the BBB. Every company on our list of the best movers in Long Grove is well-reviewed and picked by our experts.
Once you've found a handful of companies that you like, you can begin the process of asking for estimates. We strongly suggest speaking to at least one or two of the companies on our list above. When you're speaking with a moving company, make sure you explain all of the services that you're going to need. You should also confirm that you are given a "binding estimate." Otherwise, it may be subject to change.
Cost is a big concern when thinking about moving. The typical amount one can expect to spend hourly for movers in Long Grove is:
The best mover in Long Grove, according to Today's Homeowner, are Boyer-Rosene Bekins.
We use a variety of different criteria to determine which movers in Long Grove are the best ones. They include:
Many moving companies have 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 required equipment on the truck. You should also ask about insurance options that can protect you if your items get lost, damaged, or stolen.
If you're moving to a different home in Long Grove, choose a local company. They'll be more familiar with the area. If you're moving to Long Grove from afar, a national company is best, as they have more experience moving large numbers of items across the country.
The ideal time to book your move is four to six weeks beforehand. If you book later, you may pay more and have a harder time finding available movers.
