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're considering national or local movers. Different kinds of moves necessitate different kinds of experience, 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'll need to have all of your things packed and ready when they get to you. Full-service movers offer packing services, which can be great if you loathe packing boxes.
Next, you can look to see which movers near you meet the licensing requirements for movers in New York. You can also read online reviews and look at the company's rating on the BBB. Every company on our list of Watertown's best movers is well-reviewed and chosen by our experts.
After narrowing down your list, you can begin calling companies. We recommend that you talk to at least two of the companies on our list for estimates. Make sure that you explain all of the services you may need for your move. Also, confirm that their estimate is a "binding estimate" – otherwise, the actual cost may be subject to change.
Something that a lot of people worry about when they're thinking about moving is the price tag. In Watertown, the typical hourly cost for movers is:
Today's Homeowner has found the top mover in your area to be Felice Moving & Storage.
We use various different criteria to determine which movers in Watertown are the best ones. They include:
Begin the process by examining the company's website. Once you discover what services the mover offers, look at reviews of the company on other sites like Trustpilot, the BBB, Google, or Reddit.
You can also ask for references from people who used the mover in the past.
If you're moving across town, choose a local company. They'll be more familiar with the area and could offer you faster service. If you're moving to Watertown from afar, a national company is best, as they have more tools and experience to handle long-distance moves.
The best time to book your move is four to six weeks beforehand. If you book later, you may pay more and have a harder time finding available movers.
