Selecting a Moving Company

Moving on Monday

One of the most stressful parts about moving is finding a reliable moving company. Who can you trust to move your items safely, get the job done on time, and not overcharge you? How do you know the movers will be considerate of wood floors and newly painted walls?

If someone you know recently moved, ask them about their experience. If you don't know anyone, then there are sites like Movers Reviewed (www.moversreviewed.com) to help with your decision. Just put in your zip code, select the type of move/mover you want, and a list of companies will upload. For each listing, you can see their location, licenses, affiliations, size of fleet, etc.

Just click on a mover, and they will contact you for an estimate. As always, ask for references when they come out for a visit. Only trust references that have a name, address, and phone number for you to call.

Finally, once your move is over, go back to the web site and offer your review so others can benefit from your experience, good or bad.
