No one looks forward to moving – it's busy and stress-inducing, and it feels like there's always half a dozen jobs that need your attention.

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 hiring a moving company is deciding whether a local or national mover is best. Movers can also be divided into full-service and self-service companies. Full-service moving companies provide packing and loading services, which can be well worth it if you loathe packing boxes. Self-service moving companies provide a truck and driver, but you'll be expected to have all your items packed when they get there.
Some good ways to learn about a company's reputation are through online reviews and the BBB. You can also check to see which movers near you meet all of Minnesota's licensing requirements for movers. Every company on our list of Fridley's best movers is well-reviewed and selected by our team of experts.
After you have narrowed your list down to just a few companies, you can start getting estimates from them. We recommend talking to at least one or two of the companies on our list above. When you're speaking with a moving company, make sure that you explain all of the services you think you'll require. You should also verify that you are given a "binding estimate," because otherwise it may be subject to change.
One of the biggest questions you may have is how expensive your move will be. The typical hourly fee for moving in Fridley is as follows:
The best mover in Fridley, according to Today's Homeowner, are College Hunks Hauling Junk and Moving Shoreview.
To decide which movers in Fridley are the best, our team asks many questions, including:
When picking a date to move, you'll want to think about both cost and convenience. Moving during the summer months tends to be more expensive, as this is when most people move. Traffic may also be heavier during these months. You will probably want to avoid moving in May or August specifically, as the 124,231 college students attending school within 15 miles of Fridley will be moving in those months as well.
There is also the weather to consider. Temperatures in Fridley tend to be cold. Your move is best saved for the warmer months, to avoid icy roads and freezing temperatures.
Begin the process by examining the company's website. Once you discover what kinds of services the mover offers, read reviews of the company on other sites like Trustpilot, Reddit, the BBB, or Google.
You can also ask for references from people who used the mover before.
A few signs that you shouldn't use a specific mover include:
The average annual high in Fridley can get up to 53°F, and the area is in the middle third of the country for daily rainfall. Winters here yield rather high snowfall.
The median home price in Fridley is 310202, while the average monthly rent is about $1,341.
