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 movers are better for different types of moves. The first step in choosing a moving company is deciding whether a national or local company is best. Movers can further be split into full-service and self-service. A full-service mover provides packing and loading services, which are worth the money if you loathe packing boxes. Self-service movers provide a truck and driver, but you're expected to have all your items packed when they get there.
Next, you can find out which moving companies near you meet the licensing requirements for movers in New York. You can also read online reviews and take a look at the company's rating on the BBB. All of the companies on our list of Chestnut Ridge's best movers are well-reviewed and picked by our team of experts.
After you narrow down your list, you can start calling movers. It is strongly suggested that you talk to at least one or two of the movers on our list for estimates. Be sure that you explain all of the services you may need for your move. Also, confirm that your estimate is a "binding estimate" – otherwise, the actual cost may be subject to change.

We use several different criteria to determine which movers in Chestnut Ridge are the best ones. They include:

You will also want to think about the weather conditions in the area. Chestnut Ridge tends to have moderate temperatures. Therefore you may want to move outside of the coldest months of the year, to avoid possible icy roads
Many moving companies offer special services for large, expensive items. When you're getting estimates from each company on your shortlist, ask them about these services and ensure the team will have the required equipment on the truck. You should also ask about insurance options that can support you if your items get lost, damaged, or stolen.
