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 figure out if you need a national or a local mover. Different types of moves require different kinds of experience, as shown above. You'll also need to decide if you want a full-service or self-service mover. If you loathe packing boxes, a full-service company that offers packing services may be best for you. If you don't mind taking care of the packing on your own, you may be happy with a self-service mover, which will supply a truck and driver but not help pack your things.
Some of the ways by which you might learn about a company's reputation are through online reviews and the BBB. You may also want to know which movers near you meet all of Ohio's licensing requirements for movers. Every company on our list of the best movers in Shelby is well-reviewed and chosen by our experts.
Once you've found a handful of companies that you like, you can start asking for estimates. We recommend speaking to at least one or two of the companies on our list above. When talking to a potential provider, make sure you explain all the services that you're going to need.
