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:
The first step in deciding on a company is determining if a national or local mover is going to be better for you. As illustrated above, different types of moves benefit from different movers. You will also have to figure out if you want to hire a full-service or self-service moving company. If you dread the thought of packing boxes, a full-service company that provides packing services may be right for you. If you don't mind taking care of the packing on your own, you might prefer a self-service mover, which will provide a truck and a driver but not help with packing. Next, you can check which moving companies near you meet the licensing requirements for movers in Michigan. You can also search for reviews online and take a look at the company's rating on the BBB. All of the companies on our list of Canton's best movers are well-reviewed and picked by our experts. After you narrow down your list, you can start contacting companies. It is strongly suggested that you discuss your move with at least one or two of the companies on our list for estimates. Make sure that you explain all of the services you may need for your move. Also, verify that their estimate is a "binding estimate" – otherwise, the actual cost may be subject to change.

Canton tends to have moderate temperatures. This means that you may want to move outside of the coldest months of the year, to avoid possible icy roads
Many movers offer special services for large, expensive items. When you're getting estimates from each company on your shortlist, ask them about these services and ensure the team will have the required tools on the truck. You should also ask about insurance options that can protect you if your items get lost, damaged, or stolen.
The ideal time to book your move is four to six weeks in advance. If you book later, you may have a harder time finding available movers, or pay more for their services.
