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 picking a company is determining whether a local or national mover better fits your needs. As outlined above, different types of movers are suited for different sorts of moves. Movers can also be split into full-service and self-service. A full-service mover provides packing and loading services, which can be well worth it if you hate packing boxes. A self-service moving company will provide a truck and driver, but you're expected to have all your items packed when they get there.
Next, you can look to see which moving companies near you meet the licensing requirements for movers in South Carolina. You can also search for reviews online and look at the company's rating on the BBB. Every company on our list of Spartanburg's best movers is well-reviewed and selected by our experts.
Once you've narrowed it down to a few companies, you can begin calling them. We suggest reaching out to at least one or two of the moving companies on our list above. Be sure to explain all the services you need when you ask for an estimate. Also, check that they've given you a "binding estimate" – otherwise, the actual cost may be subject to change.
Something that many people worry about when moving is the price tag. In Spartanburg, the typical hourly cost for movers is:
We've determined the top mover in your area to be Allied Van Lines.
To find out which movers in Spartanburg are the best, our team asks a lot of questions, including:
When you're thinking about when to move, you'll want to take both cost and convenience into consideration. Moving during summertime will likely be more expensive, as this is when most people move. 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 13,016 college students attending school within 15 miles of Spartanburg will be moving in those months as well.
There is also the weather to consider. Spartanburg's temperatures tend to be hot. Your move will likely be inconvenient and possibly dangerous if you move on a day where the weather is too hot.
Some moving companies offer specialty services for items like pianos, antiques, and other valuables. During the estimate process, tell the company's representative about the high-value items you need to move. Ensure that the team has the proper experience and resources to move your valuables, and make sure that they have superior insurance in case of damage, loss, or theft.
The best time to book your move is four to six weeks in advance. If you book later, you may have a harder time finding available movers, or pay more for their services.
