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 want to figure out if you need a national or a local 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. A self-service moving company will provide a truck and a driver, but you'll need to have all of your things packed and ready when they get there. A full-service moving company will offer packing services, which can be a way to ease your stress if you hate packing boxes.
You can find out about a company's reputation via online reviews and the BBB. You will also want to know which movers near you meet the mover licensing requirements in Illinois. Every company on our list of the best movers in St. Clair is well-reviewed and picked by our experts.
Once you have your options narrowed down to just a few companies, you can start reaching out to them. We suggest reaching out to at least one or two of the movers on our list above. Make sure to explain all the services you need when asking for an estimate. Also, check that they've given you a "binding estimate" – otherwise, the actual cost may be subject to change.

The best mover in St. Clair, according to Today's Homeowner, are Dodge Moving & Storage.
We use various different criteria to determine which movers in St. Clair are the best ones. They include:

A few signs that you shouldn't use a specific mover include:
