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 picking a company is determining if you need a local or national mover. As shown above, different types of moves need the expertise of different movers. Movers can also be divided into full-service and self-service movers.

A self-service moving company will provide a truck and driver, but you'll be expected to have all your items packed when they get there.
You can learn about a company's reputation using online reviews or the BBB. You may also want to learn which movers near you meet the mover licensing requirements in Michigan. Every company on our list of the best movers in Highland Park is well-reviewed and chosen by our team of experts.
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 moving companies from our list above. Make sure to explain all the services you're going to need when asking for an estimate. Also, check that they've given you a "binding estimate" – otherwise, the actual cost may be subject to change.
