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 picking a company is determining if you're better off with a national or local mover. As shown above, different types of moves benefit from different movers. You will also have to decide if you want to hire a full-service or self-service mover. If you are someone who hates packing boxes, you may want to hire a full-service mover that provides packing services. If you don't mind taking care of the packing on your own, you may instead go with a self-service mover, which will provide a truck and a driver but not help with packing.
Next, you can look to see which movers near you meet the licensing requirements for movers in Massachusetts. You can also read online reviews and take a look at the company's BBB rating. All of the companies on our list of the best movers in Acton are well-reviewed and chosen by our experts.
After you narrow down your list, you can start contacting movers. We recommend that you reach out to at least one or two of the movers from our list for estimates. Make sure that you explain all of the services you may need for your move. Also, ensure that the estimate you receive is a "binding estimate" – otherwise, the actual cost may be subject to change.

The best mover in Acton, according to Today's Homeowner, are Lifetime Moving Co.
We use multiple different criteria to determine which movers in Acton are the best ones. They include:
Begin the process by visiting the company's website. Once you discover what services the mover offers, look at reviews of the company on other sites such as Trustpilot, Google, Reddit, or the BBB.
You can also ask for references from people who used the mover in the past.
A few signs that you shouldn't use a specific mover include:
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.
