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:
Different types of moves are best handled by different movers. The first step in picking a moving company is deciding whether a national or local company is best. Movers can further be split into full-service and self-service movers. A full-service moving company provides packing and loading services, which are a big stress-reliever if you're someone who hates packing boxes. A self-service mover will provide a truck and a driver, but you're expected to have all your items packed when they get there.
Some of the ways by which you might learn about a company's reputation are through online reviews and the BBB. You may also want to know which movers near you meet all of Michigan's licensing requirements for movers. All of the companies on our list of Springfield's best movers are well-reviewed and picked by our team of experts.
Once you have your options narrowed down to just a few companies, you can begin calling them. It is best to reach out to at least a couple of the moving companies on our list above. Make sure to explain all the services you think you'll need when you ask for an estimate. Also, check that you've gotten a "binding estimate" – otherwise, the actual cost may be subject to change.

Springfield also has about 2,668 students attending college within 15 miles; in May and August, you may need to worry about navigating around moving students.
Also consider the weather conditions in the area. Springfield tends to have moderate temperatures. Therefore you may want to move outside of the coldest months of the year, to avoid possible icy roads
A few signs that you shouldn't use a specific mover include:
If you're moving to a different home in Springfield, choose a local company. They will be more familiar with the area. If you're moving to Springfield from afar, a national company is best, as they have more tools and experience to handle cross-country moves.
