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:
The first step in selecting a company is determining if a national or local mover is going to be better for you. As illustrated above, different types of movers are better for different types of moves. Movers can also be divided into full-service and self-service companies. Full-service moving companies provide packing and loading services, which are a big stress-reliever if you loathe packing boxes. Self-service movers provide a truck and driver, but you'll be expected to have your things packed when they get there.
Next, you can find out which movers near you meet the licensing requirements for movers in Rhode Island. You can also browse online reviews and take a look at the company's BBB rating. All of the companies on our list of the best movers in Providence are well-reviewed and selected by our team of experts.
After narrowing down your list, you can begin reaching out to companies. It is best to speak with at least two of the companies on our list for estimates. Be sure that you explain all of the services you think you might need for your move. Also, make sure that your estimate is a "binding estimate" – otherwise, the actual cost may be subject to change.
