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:
First, you'll want to figure out if you need a national or a local mover. Different types of moves necessitate different sets of skills, as described above. You will also need to choose between a full-service or self-service moving company. Both types of movers provide trucks and drivers. However, full-service movers also offer packing and loading services, while self-service companies do not. Which you choose will depend on your budget and how much you hate packing boxes. Once you know what you need, find which local movers meet Minnesota's licensing requirements for movers. Other easy ways to research a moving company's credibility include searching for reviews online and checking its reputation via the BBB. Every company on our list of Monticello's best movers is well-reviewed and chosen by our expert team. Once you have your options narrowed down to just a few companies, you can start contacting them. It is best to reach out to at least a couple of the movers on our list above. Be 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.
One of the biggest questions you may have is how expensive your move will be. The typical hourly cost for moving in Monticello is as follows:
The best mover in Monticello, according to Today's Homeowner, are College Hunks Hauling Junk and Moving Shoreview.
To figure out which movers in Monticello are the best, our team asks many questions, including:
When you are deciding when to move, you'll want to think about both cost and convenience. Moving during the summer tends to be more expensive, due to how many people move during this time. There also may be more traffic on the roads during these months. You'll also want to think about the weather. Temperatures in Monticello tend to be cold. Your move is best saved for the warmer months, to avoid icy roads and freezing temperatures.
Begin the process by visiting the company's website. Once you discover what the mover specializes in, read reviews of the company on other sites such as Trustpilot, Google, Reddit, or the BBB.You can also ask for references from people who used the mover in the past.
A few signs that you shouldn't use a specific mover include:
The average annual high in Monticello 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.
Monticello's cost of living index is 107.7. This figure considers mortgage or rent payments, food, childcare, transportation, and other essential expenses. (100.0 is the national average.)
