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:
To choose a moving company, you'll first need to finalize the details of your move to know whether a local or national mover is better for your needs. Movers can also be divided into full-service and self-service movers. Full-service movers provide packing and loading services, which are worth the money if you're someone who hates packing boxes. A self-service mover will provide a truck and a driver, but you'll be expected to have everything packed when they get there.
Once you know what you need, find which local movers meet New York's mover licensing requirements. Other ways to research a company's credibility include searching for reviews online and checking its rating on the BBB website. Every company on our list of the best movers in Malone is well-reviewed and picked by our expert team.
Once you have your options narrowed down to just a few companies, you can start contacting them. We recommend reaching out to two or more of the moving companies on our list above. Be sure to explain all the services you think you'll need when you ask for an estimate. Also, verify that you receive a "binding estimate" – otherwise, the actual cost may be subject to change.
You may be wondering how much you're going to spend on your move. In Malone, the typical hourly cost for movers is:
Today's Homeowner has found the top mover in your area to be CARPENTER BROS. MOVING & STORAGE, INC.
To find out which movers in Malone are the best, our team asks a lot of questions, including:
To check a mover's reputation, you can:
Some movers offer specialty services for items like pianos, antiques, 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 experience and resources to move your valuables, and make sure that they have superior insurance in case of theft, loss, or damage.
If you're moving to a different home in Malone, choose a local company. They will be more familiar with the area. If you're moving to Malone from afar, a national company is best, as they have more experience moving large numbers of items across the country.
