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 right for your needs. Movers can also be split into full-service and self-service companies. A full-service mover provides packing and loading services, which are a big stress-reliever if you loathe packing boxes. Self-service movers provide a truck and a driver, but you're expected to have all your items packed when they get there.
Some of the ways by which you might learn about the reputation of a moving company are through online reviews and the BBB. You can also check to see which movers near you meet all of Illinois' licensing requirements for movers. All of the companies on our list of Markham's best movers are well-reviewed and picked by our experts.
Once your list is down to just a few companies, you can start contacting them. We recommend reaching out to two or more of the movers on our list above. Make sure to explain all the services you're going to need when asking for an estimate. Also, confirm that you've gotten a "binding estimate" – otherwise, the actual cost may be subject to change.
Cost can be a big concern when talking about moving. The typical amount you can expect to spend hourly for movers in Markham is:
Today's Homeowner has found the top mover in your area to be College Hunks Hauling Junk and Moving Southwest Chicago.

To check a mover's reputation, you can:
If you're moving across town, choose a local company. They will be more familiar with the area. If you're moving to Markham from afar, a national company is best, as they have more tools and experience to handle cross-country moves.
To ensure you get your desired pickup and delivery times, you should book moving services as far in advance as the company allows, often four to six weeks before your moving day.
Markham's cost of living index is 132.2. This figure considers mortgage or rent payments, food, childcare, transportation, and other essential expenses. (100.0 is the national average.)
