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 a national or local mover is going to be better for you. As illustrated above, different types of movers are suited for different sorts of moves. You'll also have to choose between a self-service or full-service moving company. Self-service moving companies provide a truck and a driver, but you'll need to have all of your things packed and ready when they get there. Full-service movers provide packing services, which can be very helpful if you loathe packing boxes.
Once you know what you need, learn which movers meet Washington's licensing requirements for movers. Other easy ways to research a moving company's credibility include reading online reviews and checking its rating on the BBB website. Every company on our list of Lacey's best movers is well-reviewed and chosen by our team of experts.
Once you have your options narrowed down to just a few companies, you can start reaching out to them. We suggest reaching out to two or more of the movers from our list above. Be sure to explain all the services you need when asking for an estimate. Also, confirm that you've gotten a "binding estimate" – otherwise, the actual cost may be subject to change.
One of the biggest questions you may have is how much your move will cost. The expected hourly fee for moving in Lacey is as follows:
The best mover in Lacey, according to Today's Homeowner, are College Hunks Hauling Junk and Moving.
To figure out which movers in Lacey are the best, our team asks a lot of questions, including:
When you are deciding when to move, you'll want to think about both cost and convenience. Moving during the summer is often more expensive, as most people move during this season. You also might encounter more traffic during these months. There are about 4,363 college students attending school within 15 miles of Lacey, so you may wish to avoid moving in May and August, when they will be moving.
Don't forget to think about the weather, too. Temperatures in Lacey tend to be cool. Your move will likely be affected more by the day of the week and time of day than the season.
Many movers offer special services for large, expensive items. When you're getting estimates from the companies on your shortlist, ask them about these services and ensure the team will have the required equipment on the truck. You should also ask about insurance options that can protect you if your items get lost, damaged, or stolen.
You should choose a local mover if you would prefer a more personal experience. Local movers are more familiar with the area and can provide more tailored services. However, national and international moving companies usually have more resources, better insurance, and a wider variety of services.
The average annual high in Lacey can get up to 59°F, and the area is in the top third of the country when it comes to daily rainfall. Winters here yield extremely low (if any) snowfall.
Compared to a national average of 100.0, the cost of living index for Lacey is 129.8. This index considers housing payments, childcare, food, transportation, and other crucial expenses.
