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 choosing a company is determining if you need a local or national mover. As shown above, different types of movers are better for different types of moves. Movers can be further divided into full-service and self-service movers. A full-service moving company provides packing and loading services, which can be great if you loathe packing boxes. Self-service movers provide a truck and driver, but you're expected to have your things packed when they get there. Once you know what you need, learn which moving companies meet Minnesota's mover licensing requirements. Other easy ways to research a moving company's credibility include browsing online reviews and checking its reputation via the BBB. All of the companies on our list of the best movers in Blaine are well-reviewed and chosen by our expert team. Once your list is down to just a few companies, you can begin calling them. It is best to reach out to two or more of the moving companies on our list above. Make sure to review all the services you need when you ask for an estimate. Also, confirm that you've gotten a "binding estimate" – otherwise, the actual cost may be subject to change.

The best mover in Blaine, according to Today's Homeowner, are College Hunks Hauling Junk and Moving Shoreview.

Many movers provide special services for large, expensive items. When you're getting estimates from the companies on your shortlist, ask them about these services and ensure the team will have the required equipment on the truck. You should also ask about insurance options that can support you if your items get lost, damaged, or stolen.
A few signs that you shouldn't use a specific mover include:
