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 decide if you need a national or a local mover. Different kinds of moves necessitate different kinds of experience, as described above. You will also need to choose between a self-service or full-service moving company. Both types of movers provide trucks and drivers. However, full-service movers also offer packing and loading services, while self-service companies do not. Which you choose will depend on your budget and how badly you want to avoid packing boxes. Next, you can find out which moving companies near you meet the licensing requirements for movers in Kansas. You can also browse online reviews and take a look at the company's rating on the BBB. Every company on our list of the best movers in Dodge City is well-reviewed and selected by our expert team. Once you've found a handful of companies that you like, you can go about getting estimates from them. We recommend reaching out to at least one or two of the companies on our list above. When talking to a potential provider, be sure you explain all the services you think you'll require. Also, check that the estimate you receive is a "binding estimate," as otherwise it may be subject to change.
