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 also will need to choose between a self-service or full-service moving company. Both types of companies provide trucks and drivers. However, a full-service mover can also provide packing and loading services, while self-service companies do not. Which you choose will depend on your budget and how much you hate packing boxes. Next, you can look to see which movers near you meet the licensing requirements for movers in Wisconsin. You can also browse online reviews and look at the company's rating on the BBB. All of the companies on our list of Howard's best movers are well-reviewed and selected by our experts. Once you have a small list of companies to select from, you can talk to them and ask about a free estimate. It is best to speak with two or more of the companies from our list above. Be sure to go through all of the services that you'll need, and to check that the provided estimate is a "binding estimate." Otherwise, it may be subject to change.
You might be wondering how much you should expect to spend on your move. In Howard, the typical hourly cost for movers is:
Today's Homeowner has found the top mover in your area to be Allied Van Lines.
We use multiple different criteria to determine which movers in Howard are the best ones. They include:
When you're thinking about 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. You will probably want to avoid moving in May or August specifically, as the 15,466 college students attending school within 15 miles of Howard will be moving in those months as well.Don't forget to think about the weather, too. Howard's temperatures tend to be cold. Your move is best saved for the warmer months, to avoid icy roads and freezing temperatures.
Many movers 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 supplies on the truck. You should also ask about insurance options that can support you if your items get lost, damaged, or stolen.
A few signs that you shouldn't use a specific mover include:
Howard's cost of living index is 91.6. This figure considers mortgage or rent payments, food, childcare, transportation, and other essential expenses. (100.0 is the national average.)
