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 movers are better for different types of moves. The first step in selecting a moving company is determining whether a national or local company will work best for your needs. You'll also have to choose between a self-service or full-service mover. Self-service movers provide a truck and a driver, but you'll need to have everything packed and ready when they get there. A full-service moving company will offer packing services, which can be a way to ease your stress if you hate packing boxes.
Next, you can check which movers near you meet the licensing requirements for movers in Ohio. You can also read online reviews and take a look at the company's BBB rating. All of the companies on our list of the best movers in Westerville are well-reviewed and picked by our expert team.
Once you have your options narrowed down to just a few companies, you can begin calling them. We recommend reaching out to at least one or two of the movers on our list above. Make sure to explain all the services you're going to need when you get an estimate. Also, verify that you've received a "binding estimate" – otherwise, the actual cost may be subject to change.
