Different types of moves work best with different movers. The first step in picking a moving company is determining whether a local or national mover is best. Movers can also be divided into full-service and self-service. A full-service moving company provides packing and loading services, which can be great if you are someone who dreads packing boxes. A self-service mover will provide a truck and driver, but you're expected to have everything packed when they get there.
You can find out about a company's reputation using online reviews or the BBB. You will also benefit from knowing which movers near you meet the mover licensing requirements in Massachusetts. Every company on our list of Quincy's best movers is well-reviewed and selected by our team of experts.
After you narrow down your list, you can start contacting movers. We recommend that you discuss your move with 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, verify that your estimate is a "binding estimate" – otherwise, the actual cost may be subject to change.

Don't forget to think about the weather, too. Temperatures in Quincy tend to be cool. Your move may be more difficult during the cooler months, when roads may be icy.
To check a mover's reputation, you can:
You should choose a local mover if you aren't moving long-distance. Local movers know the Quincy 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.
