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 figure out if you're going to need a local or a national mover. Different types of moves necessitate different sets of skills, as outlined above. You'll also have to choose between a self-service or full-service moving company. A self-service mover will provide trucks and drivers, but you will be expected to have all of your things packed and ready when they get there. Full-service moving companies provide packing services, which can be very helpful if you dread packing boxes.
You can find out about a company's reputation using online reviews or 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 Gates' best movers are well-reviewed and selected by our experts.
Once you've narrowed it down to a few companies, you can start contacting them. We recommend reaching out to at least a couple of the moving companies on our list above. Make sure to review all the services you need when you get an estimate. Also, verify that you've received a "binding estimate" – otherwise, the actual cost may be subject to change.

You will probably want to avoid moving in May or August specifically, as the 46,373 college students attending school within 15 miles of Gates will be moving in those months as well.
There is also the weather to consider. Temperatures in Gates tend to be cold. Your move may be more difficult during the cooler months, when roads may be icy.
To check a mover's reputation, you can:
