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 want to figure out if you're looking at local or national movers. Different kinds of moves will need different kinds of experience, as illustrated above. You'll also want to determine if you want to hire a full-service or self-service mover. If you loathe packing boxes, a full-service company that offers packing services may be right for you. If you don't mind packing yourself, you may instead go with a self-service mover, which will provide a truck and a driver but not packing assistance.
Next, you can look to see which movers near you meet the licensing requirements for movers in Texas. You can also read online reviews and take a look at the company's BBB rating. Every company on our list of the best movers in Fredericksburg is well-reviewed and picked by our expert team.
Once your list is down to just a few companies, you can begin calling them. We suggest reaching out to two or more of the moving companies from our list above. Be sure to explain all the services you're going to need when you ask for an estimate. Also, verify that they've given you a "binding estimate" – otherwise, the actual cost may be subject to change.
You are likely wondering how much you might spend on your move. In Fredericksburg, the normal hourly cost for movers is:
The best mover in Fredericksburg, according to Today's Homeowner, are Affordable Movers of the Hill Country, Ltd.
To decide which movers in Fredericksburg are the best, our team asks many questions, including:
Both cost and convenience are important when planning your move. Most people move from Memorial to Labor Day, which could be busier and more expensive for you.
You'll also want to think about the weather conditions in the area. Fredericksburg 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.
Begin the process by visiting the company's website. Once you discover what the mover specializes in, read reviews of the company on other sites such as Google, Trustpilot, the BBB, or Reddit.
You can also ask for references from people who used the mover before.
A few signs that you shouldn't use a specific mover include:
Compared to a national average of 100.0, the cost of living index for Fredericksburg is 97.7. This index considers housing payments, childcare, food, transportation, and other crucial expenses.
