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:
Different types of movers are suited for different sorts of moves. The first step in hiring a moving company is figuring out whether a national or local company is best suited to your needs. Movers can also be split into full-service and self-service. Full-service movers provide packing and loading services, which are a big stress-reliever if you're someone who hates packing boxes. A self-service mover will provide a truck and driver, but you're expected to have everything packed when they get there. Some of the ways you can learn about the reputation of a moving company are through online reviews and the BBB. You may also want to know which movers near you meet all of Indiana's mover licensing requirements. All of the companies on our list of the best movers in Muncie are well-reviewed and chosen by our team of experts. Once you've put together a small list of companies to select from, you can contact them and get a free estimate. We recommend reaching out to at least two of the companies on our list above. Make sure that you tell them about all of the services you may need, and to verify that your estimate is a "binding estimate." Otherwise, it may be subject to change.

You will probably want to avoid moving in May or August specifically, as the 17,726 college students attending school within 15 miles of Muncie will be moving in those months as well.You'll also want to think about the weather. Muncie's temperatures tend to be moderate. 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:
Many moving companies have special services for large, expensive items. When you're getting estimates from the companies on your shortlist, ask them about these services and ensure the team will have the necessary equipment on the truck. You should also ask about insurance options that can protect you if your items get lost, damaged, or stolen.
