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:
To choose a moving company, you'll first need to finalize the details of your move to know whether a local or national mover is better for your needs. You will also need to choose between a full-service or self-service moving company. Both kinds of companies provide trucks and the people to drive them. However, a full-service company can also provide packing and loading services, while self-service companies do not. Which you choose will depend on your budget and how badly you want to avoid packing boxes.
Once you know what you need, learn which moving companies meet Texas' mover licensing requirements. Other ways to research a mover's credibility include reading online reviews and checking its rating on the BBB website. Every company on our list of the best movers in La Porte is well-reviewed and selected by our expert team.
Once you've put together a small list of companies to select from, you can reach out to them and ask about a free estimate. We recommend reaching out to at least two of the companies on our list above. Make sure that you tell them about all of the services that you'll need, and to ensure that the estimate you get is a "binding estimate." Otherwise, it may be subject to change.

Many moving companies offer special services for large, expensive items. When you're getting estimates from each company on your shortlist, ask them about these services and ensure the team will have the required tools on the truck. You should also ask about insurance options that can protect you if your items get lost, damaged, or stolen.
If you're moving across town, choose a local company. They'll be more familiar with the area and could offer you faster service. If you're moving to La Porte from afar, a national company is best, as they have more experience moving large numbers of items across the country.
