Self-service moving companies provide a truck and a driver, but you'll be expected to have all your items packed when they arrive.
You can find out about a company's reputation via online reviews and the BBB. You should also find out which movers near you meet the mover licensing requirements in Michigan. All of the companies on our list of the best movers in Hampton are well-reviewed and chosen by our experts.
