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 deciding on a company is determining if you need a local or national mover. As shown above, different types of moves benefit from different movers. You also will need to choose between a full-service or self-service moving company. Both types of movers provide trucks and the people to drive them. However, a full-service company can also provide packing and loading services, while self-service companies do not. The type of mover you choose will depend on your budget and how badly you want to avoid packing boxes.
Some of the ways by which you might 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 Iowa's licensing requirements for movers. All of the companies on our list of the best movers in Pleasant Hill are well-reviewed and picked by our experts.
Once you've narrowed down your list, you can begin talking to movers. We recommend that you speak with at least two of the movers on our list for estimates. Make sure that you explain all of the services you will need for your move. Also, be sure that the estimate you receive is a "binding estimate" – otherwise, the actual cost may be subject to change.
You may be wondering how much you might spend moving. In Pleasant Hill, the usual hourly cost for movers is:
The best mover in Pleasant Hill, according to Today's Homeowner, are Allied Van Lines.
We use several different criteria to determine which movers in Pleasant Hill are the best ones. They include:
Some moving companies offer specialty services for items like antiques, pianos, 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 theft, damage, or loss.
You should choose a local mover if you want a more personal experience. Local movers know the Pleasant Hill area better and can offer more tailored services. However, national movers usually have more resources, better insurance, and a wider variety of services.
The best time to book your move is four to six weeks beforehand. If you book later, you may have a harder time finding available movers, or pay more for their services.
