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'll also want to determine if you require a full-service or self-service moving company. If you hate packing boxes, you might want to hire a full-service mover that has a packing service. If you don't mind doing your own packing, you may prefer a self-service mover, which will provide a truck and a driver but not help pack your things.
You can learn about the reputation of a moving company using online reviews or the BBB. You will also benefit from knowing which movers near you meet the licensing requirements for movers in Utah. All of the companies on our list of the best movers in Santa Clara are well-reviewed and selected by our team of experts.
Once you've narrowed down your list, you can begin talking to companies. It is strongly suggested that you speak with at least one or two of the movers from our list for estimates. Be sure that you explain all of the services you think you will need for your move. Also, ensure that the estimate they provide is a "binding estimate" – otherwise, the actual cost may be subject to change.

The best mover in Santa Clara, according to Today's Homeowner, are Precise Moving Services.
To decide which movers in Santa Clara are the best, our team asks a lot of questions, including:

When you're getting estimates from the companies 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.
A few signs that you shouldn't use a specific mover include:
The best time to book your move is four to six weeks beforehand. If you book later, you may pay more and have a harder time finding available movers.
