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 choosing a company is determining if you need a local or national mover. As illustrated above, different types of moves benefit from different movers. You will also need to choose between a self-service or full-service moving company. Both kinds of companies provide trucks and people to drive them. However, a full-service company can also provide packing and loading services, while self-service companies do not. The company that you ultimately pick will depend on your budget and how badly you want to avoid packing boxes.
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 licensing requirements for movers in Utah. Every company on our list of West Point's best movers is well-reviewed and picked by our experts.
After you narrow down your list, you can begin contacting companies. It is best to reach out to 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, be sure that the estimate they provide is a "binding estimate" – otherwise, the actual cost may be subject to change.
One of the most important questions you might have is how much your move will cost. The usual hourly fee for moving in West Point is:
The best mover in West Point, according to Today's Homeowner, are Two Man Movers & Storage.
We use a variety of different criteria to determine which movers in West Point are the best ones. They include:
Consider both cost and convenience when planning your move. Most people move from Memorial to Labor Day, which could be busier and more expensive for you. West Point also has about 3,375 students attending college within 15 miles; in May and August, you may need to worry about navigating around moving students.
You'll also want to think about the weather conditions in the area. West Point tends to have moderate temperatures. Therefore you may want to move outside of the coldest months of the year, to avoid possible icy roads
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 tools and experience to move your valuables, and make sure that they have superior insurance in case of damage, theft, or loss.
A few signs that you shouldn't use a specific mover include:
The average annual high in West Point can get up to 61°F, and the area is in the bottom third of the country when it comes to daily rainfall. Winters here yield rather high snowfall.
Compared to a national average of 100.0, the cost of living index for West Point is 101.6. This index considers housing payments, childcare, food, transportation, and other crucial expenses.
