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 have to determine if you're looking at local or national movers. Different kinds of moves will need different kinds of experience, as illustrated above. You'll also have to choose between a self-service or full-service mover. Self-service movers provide a truck and a driver, but you will be expected to have everything packed and ready when they get to you. A full-service moving company will offer packing services, which can be a way to ease your stress if you loathe packing boxes. Once you know what you need, find which moving companies meet New Jersey's licensing requirements for movers. Other methods by which to research a company's credibility include reading online reviews and checking its rating on the BBB website. All of the companies on our list of Union's best movers are well-reviewed and chosen by our team of experts. Once you're down to a small list of companies to pick from, you can reach out to them and ask about a free estimate. We recommend reaching out to two or more of the companies from our list above. Make sure that you tell them all of the services that you'll need, and to ensure that your estimate is a "binding estimate." Otherwise, it may be subject to change.

There also may be more traffic on the roads during these months. You will probably want to avoid moving in May or August specifically, as the 237,006 college students attending school within 15 miles of Union will be moving in those months as well.Don't forget to think about the weather, too. Temperatures in Union tend to be moderate. Your move will likely be affected more by the day of the week and time of day than the season.
To check a mover's reputation, you can:
The best 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.
