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 decide if you're going to need a local or a national mover. Different types of moves will need different kinds of experience, as described above. Movers can also be divided into full-service and self-service. Full-service movers provide packing and loading services, which are worth the money if you hate packing boxes. A self-service moving company will provide a truck and driver, but you'll be expected to have everything packed when they arrive. You can learn about a company's reputation via online reviews and the BBB. You should also find out which movers near you meet the mover licensing requirements in Oregon. Every company on our list of Gresham's best movers is well-reviewed and selected by our expert team. Once you have your options narrowed down to just a few companies, you can begin calling them. We suggest reaching out to at least one or two of the movers from our list above. Be sure to explain all the services you need when you get an estimate. Also, confirm that you've gotten a "binding estimate" – otherwise, the actual cost may be subject to change.
You may be wondering how much you might spend moving. In Gresham, the normal hourly cost for movers is:
The best mover in Gresham, according to Today's Homeowner, are O'Neill Transfer Moving & Storage Co.
To decide which movers in Gresham are the best, our team asks many questions, including:
When you're thinking about when to move, you'll want to think about both cost and convenience. Moving during the summer months is often more expensive, as most people move during this season. 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 75,770 college students attending school within 15 miles of Gresham will be moving in those months as well.Don't forget to think about the weather, too. Temperatures in Gresham tend to be moderate. Your move will likely be affected more by the day of the week and time of day than the season.
A few signs that you shouldn't use a specific mover include:
You should choose a local mover if you want a more personal experience. Local movers are more familiar with the area and can offer more tailored services. However, national movers usually have more resources, better insurance, and a wider variety of services.
