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 decide if you need a national or a local mover. Different kinds of moves necessitate different kinds of experience, as illustrated above. You will also need to choose between a full-service or self-service moving company. Both types of companies provide trucks and drivers. However, a full-service mover can also provide packing and loading services, while self-service companies do not. Which you choose will depend on your budget and how badly you want to avoid packing boxes.
You can check the reputation of a moving company via online reviews and the BBB. You will also benefit from knowing which movers near you meet the mover licensing requirements in New York. All of the companies on our list of Canandaigua's best movers are well-reviewed and chosen by our expert team.
After you narrow down your list, you can begin talking to movers. We recommend that you speak with at least one or two of the movers from our list for estimates. Make sure that you explain all of the services you think you will need for your move. Also, confirm that your estimate is a "binding estimate" – otherwise, the actual cost may be subject to change.
Something that most people worry about as they prepare to move is the cost. In Canandaigua, the typical hourly cost for movers is:
We've determined the top mover in your area to be Highline Moving and Delivery.
We use several different criteria to determine which movers in Canandaigua are the best ones. They include:
When you're thinking about when to move, you'll want to consider both cost and convenience. Moving during the summer tends to be more expensive, as most people move during this season. You also might encounter more traffic during these months. There are about 4,250 college students attending school within 15 miles of Canandaigua, so you may wish to avoid moving in May and August, when they will be moving.
There is also the weather to consider. Canandaigua's temperatures tend to be cold. Your move is best saved for the warmer months, to avoid icy roads and freezing temperatures.
You should choose a local mover if you would prefer a more personal experience. Local movers are more familiar with the area and can provide more tailored services. However, national and international moving companies usually have more resources, better insurance, and a wider variety of services.
To ensure you get the dates you want for pickup and delivery, you should book moving services as far in advance as the company allows, often four to six weeks before your moving day.
High temperatures in Canandaigua can reach 54°F. The area has about average daily rainfall and high snowfall in the winter months.
The median home price in Canandaigua is 248476, while the average monthly rent is about $1,764.
