Moving is often a complicated and stressful time, and it's not a task that anyone looks forward to. Even if you're moving to a smaller city (like Arlington) with fewer crowds, you may have some concerns about navigating around a big truck and all of your possessions.

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 deciding on a company is determining if you're better off with a national or local mover. As illustrated above, different types of moves benefit from different movers. You'll also have to choose between a self-service or full-service mover. Self-service moving companies provide a truck and a driver, but you will be expected to have everything packed and ready when they get there. A full-service moving company will offer packing services, which can be great if you hate packing boxes.
You can learn about a company's reputation using online reviews or the BBB. You may also want to learn which movers near you meet the licensing requirements for movers in Virginia. Every company on our list of Arlington's best movers is well-reviewed and selected by our experts.
Once you've put together a small list of companies to pick from, you can contact them and ask about a free estimate. We strongly suggest talking to two or more of the companies on our list above. Be sure to tell them all of the services that you're looking for, and to verify that the provided estimate is a "binding estimate." Otherwise, it may be subject to change.
One of the most important questions you might have is how expensive your move will be. The usual hourly fee for moving in Arlington is as follows:

The best time to book your move is four to six weeks beforehand. If you book later, you may have a harder time finding available movers, or pay more for their services.
