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 right for your needs. You'll also have to choose between a self-service or full-service moving company. Self-service moving companies provide trucks and drivers, but you will be expected to have all of your things packed and ready when they get to you. A full-service mover will provide packing services, which can be a boon if you hate packing boxes.
Next, you can look to see which moving companies near you meet the licensing requirements for movers in Ohio. You can also look for reviews online and look at the company's BBB rating. All of the companies on our list of the best movers in Franklin are well-reviewed and picked by our expert team.
Once your list is down to just a few companies, you can start reaching out to them. We recommend reaching out to at least a couple of the moving companies from our list above. Be sure to explain all the services you need when asking for an estimate. Also, confirm that you've received a "binding estimate" — otherwise, the actual cost may be subject to change.
