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:
Different types of moves work best with different movers. The first step in choosing a moving company is determining whether a local or national mover is best. You'll also have to choose between a self-service or full-service mover. A self-service moving company will provide trucks and drivers, but you will be expected to have everything packed and ready when they arrive. A full-service moving company will provide packing services, which can be great if you loathe packing boxes.
Some of the ways by which you might learn about a company's reputation are through online reviews and the BBB. You might also want to learn about which movers near you meet all of Maryland's licensing requirements for movers. All of the companies on our list of the best movers in Westminster are well-reviewed and selected by our experts.
After you have narrowed your list down to just a few companies, you can begin getting estimates from them. We strongly suggest reaching out to at least one or two of the companies from our list above. When you're speaking with a moving company, be sure that you explain all of the services that you're going to need. Also, check that you receive a "binding estimate," as otherwise it may be subject to change.
One of the most common questions you have is how much your move will cost. The typical hourly fee for moving in Westminster is as follows:
The best mover in Westminster, according to Today's Homeowner, are Glamour Moving Company, Inc.
We use a variety of different criteria to determine which movers in Westminster are the best ones. They include:
Both cost and convenience are important when planning your move. Most people move from Memorial to Labor Day, which could be busier and more expensive for you. Westminster also has about 5,019 students attending college within 15 miles; in May and August, you may need to worry about navigating around moving students.
You'll also want to think about the weather conditions in the area. Westminster tends to have moderate temperatures. This means that you may want to move outside of the coldest months of the year, to avoid possible icy roads
You should choose a local mover if you want a more personal experience. Local movers know the Westminster area better and can offer more tailored services. However, national and international moving companies usually have more resources, better insurance, and a wider variety of services.
The ideal time to book your move is four to six weeks beforehand. If you book later, you may pay more and have a harder time finding available movers.
