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:

Next, you can find out which movers near you meet the licensing requirements for movers in Rhode Island. You can also read online reviews and take a look at the company's rating on the BBB. Every company on our list of Richmond's best movers is well-reviewed and chosen by our expert team.
Once you've narrowed it down to a small list of companies to choose from, you can contact them and inquire about getting a free estimate.
