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 types of moves will need different sets of skills, as described above. You will also have to figure out if you require a full-service or self-service moving company. If you are someone who hates packing boxes, you may want to hire a full-service mover that has a packing service. If you don't mind doing your own packing, you might instead go with a self-service mover, which will supply a truck and driver but not packing assistance.
You can find out about the reputation of a moving company using online reviews or the BBB. You will also want to know which movers near you meet the mover licensing requirements in Kentucky. All of the companies on our list of Louisville's best movers are well-reviewed and picked by our team of experts.
After you narrow down your list, you can begin contacting movers. It is best to reach out to at least one or two of the companies from our list for estimates. Be sure that you explain all of the services you may need for your move. Also, ensure 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 typical hourly cost for moving in Louisville is as follows:
The best mover in Louisville, according to Today's Homeowner, are Allied Van Lines.
We use a variety of different criteria to determine which movers in Louisville are the best ones. They include:
Some movers 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 experience and resources to move your valuables, and make sure that they have superior insurance in case of damage, theft, or loss.
If you're moving across town, choose a local company. They'll be more familiar with the area. If you're moving to Louisville from afar, a national company is best, as they have more experience moving large numbers of items across the country.
The best time to book your move is four to six weeks in advance. If you book later, you may pay more and have a harder time finding available movers.
