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 better for your needs. You also will have to choose between a full-service or self-service moving company. Both types of movers provide trucks and the people to drive them. However, full-service companies also offer 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.
Some of the ways you can learn about a company's reputation are through online reviews and the BBB. You can also discover which movers near you meet all of Indiana's licensing requirements for movers. All of the companies on our list of the best movers in Lowell are well-reviewed and chosen by our experts.
Once you've narrowed down your list, you can begin talking to movers. It is strongly suggested that you speak with at least two of the companies from our list for estimates. Be sure that you explain all of the services you think you might need for your move. Also, make sure that their estimate is a "binding estimate" – otherwise, the actual cost may be subject to change.
Something that most people worry about as they prepare to move is the price tag. In Lowell, the typical hourly cost for movers is:
The best mover in Lowell, according to Today's Homeowner, are Indiana Moving Services.
To figure out which movers in Lowell are the best, our team asks many questions, including:
When you're thinking about when to move, you'll want to consider both cost and convenience. Moving during the summer is generally more expensive, as most people move during this season. There also may be more traffic on the roads during these months. There are about 512 college students attending school within 15 miles of Lowell, so you may wish to avoid moving in May and August, when they will be moving.
Don't forget to think about the weather, too. Temperatures in Lowell tend to be cool. Your move will likely be affected more by the day of the week and time of day than the season.
To check a mover's reputation, you can:
Some moving companies offer specialty services for items like pianos, antiques, and other valuables. During the estimate process, tell the company's representative about the high-value items you need to move. Ensure that the team has the proper tools and experience to move your valuables, and make sure that they have superior insurance in case of damage, loss, or theft.
