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:
First, you'll want to determine if you're looking at local or national movers. Different types of moves necessitate different sets of skills, as described above. You will also 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 provide packing and loading services, while self-service companies do not. The company that you ultimately pick will depend on your budget and how much you hate packing boxes.
Once you know what you need, find which local movers meet Massachusetts' licensing requirements for movers. Other easy ways to research a mover'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 Wilbraham is well-reviewed and picked by our expert team.
Once your list is down to just a few companies, you can start reaching out to them. We recommend reaching out to at least one or two of the movers on our list above. Make sure to explain all the services you need when asking for an estimate. Also, check that you receive a "binding estimate" – otherwise, the actual cost may be subject to change.

You should also ask about insurance options that can protect you if your items get lost, damaged, or stolen.
A few signs that you shouldn't use a specific mover include:
To ensure you get the dates you want for pickup and delivery, you should book moving services as early in advance as the company allows, often four to six weeks before your moving day.
