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 determine if you're going to need a local or a national mover. Different types of moves require different sets of skills, as shown above. You also will have to choose between a self-service or full-service moving company. Both kinds of movers provide trucks and people to drive them. However, full-service movers also provide packing and loading services, while self-service companies do not. The company that you ultimately pick will depend on your budget and how badly you want to avoid packing boxes.
Some of the ways by which you might learn about a company's reputation are through online reviews and the BBB. You can also discover which movers near you meet all of New Jersey's licensing requirements for movers. All of the companies on our list of the best movers in Medford are well-reviewed and selected by our team of experts.
Once your list is down to just a few companies, you can begin calling them. We suggest reaching out to at least a couple of the movers on our list above. Be sure to explain all the services you need when asking for an estimate. Also, confirm that you've received a "binding estimate" – otherwise, the actual cost may be subject to change.

The best mover in Medford, according to Today's Homeowner, are Sinclair Moving & Storage.
We use a variety of different criteria to determine which movers in Medford are the best ones. They include:
When picking a date to move, you'll want to take both cost and convenience into consideration. Moving during the summer months tends to be more expensive, as most people move during this season. Traffic may also be heavier during these months. You will probably want to avoid moving in May or August specifically, as the 21,508 college students attending school within 15 miles of Medford will be moving in those months as well.
There is also the weather to consider. Medford's temperatures tend to be moderate. Your move may be more inconvenient during the warmer months, depending on how hot the day is.
To check a mover's reputation, you can:
Some movers provide specialty services for items like antiques, pianos, and other valuables. During the estimate process, tell the company's representative about the high-value items you need to move. Ensure that the team has the proper tools and experience to move your valuables, and make sure that they have superior insurance in case of loss, theft, or damage.
