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 illustrated above, different types of movers are suited for different sorts of moves. You will also have to decide if you want a full-service or self-service mover. If you dread the thought of packing boxes, a full-service company that provides packing services may be best for you. If you don't mind doing your own packing, you might hire a self-service mover, which will provide a truck and driver but not packing assistance.
You can read up on the reputation of a moving company using online reviews or the BBB. You may also want to learn which movers near you meet the mover licensing requirements in Texas. Every company on our list of Harker Heights' best movers is well-reviewed and picked by our experts.
Once you've narrowed it down to a small list of companies to pick from, you can talk to them and inquire about getting a free estimate. We strongly suggest talking to two or more of the companies from our list above. Make sure that you go through all of the services you may need, and to check that their estimate is a "binding estimate." Otherwise, it may be subject to change.
Cost is a common concern when thinking about moving. The usual amount one might expect to spend hourly for movers in Harker Heights is:
Today's Homeowner has found the top mover in your area to be Apple Moving.
To decide which movers in Harker Heights are the best, our team asks many questions, including:
When you are deciding when to move, you'll want to consider both cost and convenience. Moving during the summer is usually 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 19,165 college students attending school within 15 miles of Harker Heights will be moving in those months as well.
There is also the weather to consider. Temperatures in Harker Heights 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.
A few signs that you shouldn't use a specific mover include:
If you're moving across town, choose a local company. They will be more familiar with the area and could offer you faster service. If you're moving to Harker Heights from afar, a national company is best, as they have more experience moving large numbers of items across the country.
The average annual high in Harker Heights can get up to 80°F, and the area is in the middle third of the country when it comes to daily rainfall. Winters here yield extremely low (if any) snowfall.
