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:
To choose a moving company, you'll first need to finalize the details of your move to know whether a local or national mover is better for your needs. Movers can be further divided into full-service and self-service movers. A full-service mover provides packing and loading services, which are worth the money if you are someone who dreads packing boxes. Self-service movers provide a truck and driver, but you're expected to have all your items packed when they get there. You can find out about a company's reputation using online reviews or the BBB. You should also find out which movers near you meet the licensing requirements for movers in Minnesota. Every company on our list of the best movers in Faribault is well-reviewed and picked by our experts. Once you've narrowed your list down to a few companies, you can begin the process of asking for estimates. It is best to talk to at least one or two of the companies from our list above. When you're speaking with a moving company, make sure you explain all of the services you'll need. Also, confirm that you receive a "binding estimate" – otherwise, it may be subject to change.
One of the most important questions you have is how much your move will cost. The typical hourly cost for moving in Faribault is as follows:

Faribault also has about 5,032 students attending college within 15 miles; in May and August, you may need to worry about navigating around moving students.You will also want to think about the weather conditions in the area. Faribault tends to have cold temperatures. Therefore you may still want to move during the warmer months to avoid icy conditions.
A few signs that you shouldn't use a specific mover include:
The most optimal time to book your move is four to six weeks in advance. If you book later, you may pay more and have a harder time finding available movers.
