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 selecting a company is determining whether a local or national mover better fits your needs. As shown above, different types of movers are suited for different sorts of moves. Movers can also be split into full-service and self-service companies. A full-service mover provides packing and loading services, which are worth the money if you loathe packing boxes. A self-service moving company will provide a truck and a driver, but you'll be expected to have all your items packed when they arrive. You can find out about a company's reputation using online reviews or the BBB. You will also benefit from knowing which movers near you meet the licensing requirements for movers in Indiana. All of the companies on our list of the best movers in Kokomo are well-reviewed and picked by our expert team. Once you're down to a small list of companies to choose from, you can reach out to them and ask about a free estimate. We recommend reaching out to two or more of the companies on our list above. Be sure to tell them all of the services you may need, and to check that the estimate you get is a "binding estimate." Otherwise, it may be subject to change.
