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 picking a moving company is determining whether a local or national company will work best for your needs. You also will need to choose between a self-service or full-service moving company. Both types of movers provide trucks and the people to drive them. However, full-service movers also offer packing and loading services, while self-service companies do not. Which you choose will depend on your budget and how badly you want to avoid packing boxes.
Once you know what you need, find which local movers meet Massachusetts' mover licensing requirements. Other ways to research a company's credibility include searching for reviews online and checking its rating on the BBB website. Every company on our list of the best movers in Rutland is well-reviewed and chosen by our experts.
Once you've narrowed down your list, you can start talking to companies. It is strongly suggested that you reach out to at least one or two of the companies on our list for estimates. Be sure that you explain all of the services you will need for your move. Also, verify that their estimate is a "binding estimate" – otherwise, the actual cost may be subject to change.
