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 suited for different sorts of moves. The first step in hiring a moving company is deciding whether a national or local company is best suited to your needs. You'll also have to choose between a self-service or full-service moving company. Self-service moving companies provide trucks and drivers, but you'll need to have all of your things packed and ready when they arrive. A full-service moving company will provide packing services, which can be a boon if you dread packing boxes.
Next, you can check which moving companies near you meet the licensing requirements for movers in South Carolina. You can also search for reviews online and view the company's rating on the BBB. All of the companies on our list of the best movers in Orangeburg are well-reviewed and selected by our expert team.
After you've found a few companies you like, you can begin getting estimates from them. It is recommended that you speak to at least one or two of the companies from our list above. When you do reach out, make sure you explain all of the services you think you'll require. You should also verify that the company provides you with a "binding estimate" – otherwise, it may be subject to change.

The best mover in Orangeburg, according to Today's Homeowner, are American Moving Labor.
We use various different criteria to determine which movers in Orangeburg are the best ones. They include:
Cost and convenience are both important when planning your move. Most people move from Memorial to Labor Day, which could be busier and more expensive for you. Orangeburg also has about 6,875 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. Orangeburg tends to have hot temperatures. This means that weather may not affect what time of year you move as much as it would in some other places. Still, you may not want to move in mid-summer, when extreme heat or humidity could rob you of energy.
A few signs that you shouldn't use a specific mover include:
To ensure you get your desired pickup and delivery times, you should book moving services as far in advance as possible, ideally four to six weeks before your moving day.
