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:

Movers can also be split into full-service and self-service. Full-service moving companies provide packing and loading services, which can be great if you're someone who hates packing boxes. A self-service mover will provide a truck and driver, but you'll be expected to have your things packed when they arrive.
Next, you can check which movers near you meet the licensing requirements for movers in Michigan. You can also look for reviews online and look at the company's rating on the BBB. Every company on our list of Detroit's best movers is well-reviewed and chosen by our team of experts.
Once you've narrowed down your list, you can start talking to companies. We recommend that you reach out to at least two of the movers on our list for estimates. Make sure that you explain all of the services you think you will need for your move. Also, ensure that the estimate they provide is a "binding estimate" – otherwise, the actual cost may be subject to change.
