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:
First, you'll need to determine if you're going to need a local or a national mover. Different types of moves will need different kinds of experience, as shown above. You'll also have to choose between a self-service or full-service moving company. Self-service movers provide trucks and drivers, but you'll need to have all of your things packed and ready when they arrive. Full-service movers offer packing services, which can be very helpful if you dread packing boxes.
Once you know what you need, find which local movers meet Illinois' licensing requirements for movers. Other easy ways to research a company's credibility include browsing online reviews and checking its rating on the BBB website. Every company on our list of the best movers in Round Lake Beach is well-reviewed and picked by our expert team.
Once you've narrowed your list down to a few companies, you can go about getting estimates from them. We strongly suggest reaching out to at least one or two of the companies from our list above. When you do speak with a mover, make sure that you explain all of the services you'll need. You should also check that the estimate you receive is a "binding estimate." Otherwise, it may be subject to change.
Cost can be a big concern when it comes to moving. The typical amount you might expect to spend hourly for movers in Round Lake Beach is:
We've determined the top mover in your area to be Allied Van Lines.

You also might encounter more traffic during these months. You will probably want to avoid moving in May or August specifically, as the 17,209 college students attending school within 15 miles of Round Lake Beach will be moving in those months as well.
Don't forget to think about the weather, too. Round Lake Beach's temperatures 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:
To ensure you get the dates you want for pickup and delivery, you should book moving services as far in advance as the company allows, often four to six weeks before your moving day.
