Shopping for Moving Companies? Here are 5 Things to Look For

moving companies shopping While the task of shopping for moving companies may seem daunting, there are several factors to consider that can help easily narrow down the search to just the right mover. The following list includes 5 important questions to ask when deciding among moving companies:

  • How high is the Better Business Bureau (BBB) rating? – Be sure to find out how well the BBB rates the moving companies you’re considering. A high rating means the company has had few complaints, responds in good faith to any complaints filed, and maintains ethical business practices.
  • Are there affiliations with other moving companies? – Often, professional local moving companies are subsidiaries of larger relocation providers and they have access to the necessary resources to execute larger moves as well as those that are national or even international.
  • What types of services are offered? – Choosing a full-service mover means you can have your items professionally packed, loaded, hauled, and unloaded by a single company, meaning a smaller bill and more consistent service.
  • How good are the customer reviews? – Find out what other customers are saying about the moving companies you’re considering. Lots of positive reviews are great, and if you see occasional negative feedback, determine the severity of the complaint and see if there are any trends in the types of complaints made (slow service, damaged items, etc.)
  • What’s the turnaround time? – How quickly will the movers get the job done? Will they guarantee the pick-up and drop-off dates?
