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'll also want to figure out if you require a full-service or self-service mover. If you dread the thought of packing boxes, you will probably want to find a full-service company that offers packing services. If you don't mind packing yourself, you may be happy with a self-service mover, which will provide a truck and a driver but not help with packing.
Once you know what you need, find which local movers meet Kansas' mover licensing requirements. Other ways to research a moving company's credibility include browsing online reviews and checking its rating on the BBB website. All of the companies on our list of Leawood's best movers are well-reviewed and selected by our expert team.
Once you've narrowed it down to a small list of companies to choose from, you can contact them and get a free estimate. We highly recommend speaking with two or more of the companies on our list above. Make sure that you explain to them all of the services you may need, and to check that their estimate is a "binding estimate." Otherwise, it may be subject to change.

You'll also want to think about the weather. Leawood's temperatures tend to be warm. Your move may be more inconvenient during the warmer months, depending on how hot the day is.
