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 figuring out whether a national or local mover is best suited to your needs. You'll also have to choose between a self-service or full-service mover. A self-service mover will provide trucks and drivers, but you will be expected to have all of your things packed and ready when they arrive. Full-service moving companies offer packing services, which can be a boon if you dread packing boxes.
Once you know what you need, learn which local movers meet Massachusetts' mover licensing requirements. Other methods by which to research a mover's credibility include browsing online reviews and checking its reputation via the BBB. Every company on our list of Palmer Town's best movers is well-reviewed and picked by our experts.
Once you've found a handful of companies that you like, you can begin asking for estimates. We strongly suggest speaking to at least one or two of the companies from our list above. When talking to a company you are thinking of hiring, make sure 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.
