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 choosing a company is determining if a national or local mover is going to be better for you. As shown above, different types of movers are better for different types of moves. Movers can be further divided into full-service and self-service movers. Full-service movers provide packing and loading services, which can be great if you hate packing boxes. Self-service movers provide a truck and driver, but you're expected to have your things packed when they arrive.
Some of the ways you can learn about the reputation of a moving company are through online reviews and the BBB. You can also discover which movers near you meet all of Kansas' mover licensing requirements. Every company on our list of Gardner's best movers is well-reviewed and chosen by our expert team.
After you narrow down your list, you can begin contacting companies. We recommend that you discuss your move with at least two of the movers on our list for estimates. Be sure that you explain all of the services you might need for your move. Also, be sure that their estimate is a "binding estimate" – otherwise, the actual cost may be subject to change.
One of the most common questions you have is how much your move will cost. The expected hourly fee for moving in Gardner is as follows:
Today's Homeowner has found the top mover in your area to be N L Wilson Moving & Storage.
To decide which movers in Gardner are the best, our team asks a lot of questions, including:
Consider both cost and convenience when planning your move. The majority of people move from May to August, which could be busier and more expensive for you. With about 25,675 students attending college within 15 miles of Gardner, you may want to avoid moving when semesters start in August and end in May.
You'll also want to think about the weather conditions in the area. Gardner tends to have moderate temperatures. As a result, you may want to move outside of the coldest months of the year, to avoid possible icy roads
Some moving companies provide 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 experience and resources to move your valuables, and make sure that they have superior insurance in case of damage, theft, or loss.
A few signs that you shouldn't use a specific mover include:
The average annual high in Gardner can get up to 65°F, and the area is in the middle third of the country when it comes to daily rainfall. Winters here yield a low to moderate amount of snowfall.
Gardner's cost of living index is 102.6. This figure considers mortgage or rent payments, food, childcare, transportation, and other essential expenses. (100.0 is the national average.)
