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 need to figure out if you're going to need a local or a national mover. Different types of moves require different kinds of experience, as outlined above. You'll also want to determine if you want a full-service or self-service moving company. If you are someone who hates packing boxes, you might want to hire a full-service mover that has a packing service. If you don't mind packing yourself, you might be happy with a self-service mover, which will supply a truck and driver but not packing assistance.
Next, you can look to see which moving companies near you meet the licensing requirements for movers in Oregon. You can also look for reviews online and view the company's BBB rating. All of the companies on our list of the best movers in Ashland are well-reviewed and chosen by our team of experts.
Once your list is down to just a few companies, you can start reaching out to them. We recommend reaching out to at least one or two of the moving companies on our list above. Make sure to review all the services you think you'll need when you get an estimate. Also, verify that you've gotten a "binding estimate" – otherwise, the actual cost may be subject to change.
One of the most common questions you have is how much your move will cost. The typical hourly cost for moving in Ashland is:
The best mover in Ashland, according to Today's Homeowner, are Back Savers Moving.
We use a variety of different criteria to determine which movers in Ashland are the best ones. They include:
Cost and convenience are both important when planning your move. The majority of people move from May to August, which could be busier and more expensive for you. Ashland also has about 4,397 students attending college within 15 miles; in May and August, you may need to worry about navigating around moving students.
Also consider the weather conditions in the area. Ashland tends to have moderate temperatures. Therefore you may want to move outside of the coldest months of the year, to avoid possible icy roads
If you're moving across town, choose a local company. They'll be more familiar with the area. If you're moving to Ashland from afar, a national company is best, as they have more experience moving large numbers of items across the country.
The best time to book your move is four to six weeks in advance. If you book later, you may pay more and have a harder time finding available movers.
The average annual high in Ashland can get up to 59°F, and the area is in the middle third of the country for daily rainfall. Winters here yield a low to moderate amount of snowfall.
