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 moves work best with different movers. The first step in picking a moving company is deciding whether a national or local mover is best suited to your needs. You will also have to figure out if you require a full-service or self-service mover. If you hate packing boxes, you will probably want to use a full-service company that offers packing services. If you don't mind doing your own packing, you may hire a self-service mover, which will provide a truck and driver but not help with packing.
Once you know what you need, find which moving companies meet Ohio's mover licensing requirements. Other easy ways to research a mover's credibility include searching for reviews online and checking its rating on the BBB website. All of the companies on our list of the best movers in Canton are well-reviewed and chosen by our experts.
Once you're down to a small list of companies to select from, you can reach out to them and ask about a free estimate. It is best to speak with two or more of the companies from our list above. Make sure that you explain to them all of the services that you'll need, and to verify that the provided estimate is a "binding estimate." Otherwise, it may be subject to change.
Something that most people worry about when they're thinking about moving is the cost. In Canton, the typical hourly cost for movers is:
Today's Homeowner has found the top mover in your area to be New Roots Moving Company.
To figure out which movers in Canton are the best, our team asks a lot of questions, including:
When you are deciding when to move, you'll want to think about both cost and convenience. Moving during the summer is often more expensive, due to how many people move during this time. There also may be more traffic on the roads during these months. You will probably want to avoid moving in May or August specifically, as the 19,521 college students attending school within 15 miles of Canton will be moving in those months as well.
There is also the weather to consider. Temperatures in Canton tend to be cool. Your move may be more difficult during the cooler months, when roads may be icy.
If you're moving across town, choose a local company. They will be more familiar with the area. If you're moving to Canton from afar, a national company is best, as they have more tools and experience to handle cross-country moves.
The most optimal time to book your move is four to six weeks beforehand. If you book later, you may have a harder time finding available movers, or pay more for their services.
High temperatures in Canton can reach 58°F. The area has about average daily rainfall and moderate snowfall in the winter months.
