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 movers are better for different types of moves. The first step in selecting a moving company is determining whether a local or national mover will work best for your needs. 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're expected to have all of your things packed and ready when they get to you. A full-service moving company will offer packing services, which can be very helpful if you loathe packing boxes.
Once you know what you need, learn which movers meet Massachusetts' licensing requirements for movers. Other ways to research a mover's credibility include reading online reviews and checking its reputation via the BBB. All of the companies on our list of Marlborough's best movers are well-reviewed and picked by our expert team.
Once you have your options narrowed down to just a few companies, you can begin calling them. We suggest reaching out to at least a couple of the moving companies on our list above. Be sure to review all the services you're going to need when asking for an estimate. Also, check that you've received a "binding estimate" – otherwise, the actual cost may be subject to change.
