Why Choose A Moving Company

People uploading moving boxes to a truck

So why opt for a moving company over a DIY alternative? For starters, hiring a moving company saves you from having to do any of the heavy lifting on moving day. This, in and of itself, is the most common reason why people choose to hire professional movers. Moving company pros know how to properly load and unload moving trucks, as well as how to move furniture without scratching the floors. Choosing a reputable and reliable moving company to handle your relocation only ensures that your move will be carried out in the most efficient way possible. It also frees up valuable time and energy that you can spend on other important to-do list items on your moving checklist.

Factors that Affect Moving Company Quotes

1. PACKING AND CRATING COSTS:

Remember, you’re paying your moving company for their time. Obviously, they’ll need more time if you ask them to pack your belongings. You can save money by packing some or all of your belongings yourself. You can cut costs further by disassembling large pieces of furniture rather than having the mover do it for you. Finally, you’ll pay more for specific kinds of packing and handling. For example, if items like artwork or a grandfather clock require crating, your cost will be higher.

2.POOR ACCESS TO YOUR PICK-UP OR DROP-OFF LOCATION:

If your current or future residence is in a location which prevents access for a large truck (for example, because of a narrow road or a weak bridge), your movers will need to find another way to get belongings out of your old home or into your new one. For example, they might need to use smaller vehicles to gain access. In this case, you’ll need to pay the mover a shuttle fee.

3. STAIRS OR LONG WALKING DISTANCES:

The cost of your move will also be higher if there are very long stairs (or multiple stairs) which they need to carry your belongings up or down. You might also have to pay a long-carry fee if the distance from the moving truck to the entrance of your residence is greater than 50 feet.

4. NARROW DOORS OR HALLWAYS:

If some of your items don’t fit through the door or down narrow hallways, a rigger might be needed to hoist them inside through a window. In this case, you could be assessed a hoisting fee.

5. STORAGE FEES:

This is one of the most common reasons for increased costs. If you need to store some or all of your belongings at the carrier’s warehouse because your new home is not ready to be occupied, you’ll need to pay an additional storage fee.

6. TIME OF YEAR:

Summer is the busiest moving time of the year, which means that moving in the summer will cost more. You can save money if it’s possible to time your move from September to May. You’ll also pay more if you move on a national holiday or on the first or last day of the month (this is because rental agreements typically expire at these times, which means more people move then).

Some moving companies quote lowball prices and then, once the move is underway, hold their customers' property hostage until they pay much more. Others demand substantial deposits and then don't show up

Hi Braam,

Great question! If you go to the top bar where it says "Moving Estimate" and click through to this page, you can easily fill out an estimate that can be distributed to movers within your area that have the correct licensing to move interstate and that are in good standing with Moving Authority. You will want to follow through and use the Moving Calculator where you input the inventory of your household goods. This will help expedite the process and will direct the correct list of the items that are being moved to each mover. This will allow you to compare apples to apples and choose the mover that best fits your needs.

Hi Elsie I not quite sure I understand your question. This page is to find moving companies in the Unites States. If you want to locate a local mover near you, you just click above on the state you think that the moving company is in and then you will see the top 20 movers on the first page. The Movers are listed though continuous pages there after. You can also search a Mover via name with the "Find Mover" tab at the top of the page. This search is done with either the name or the license number that the local mover holds. When you find local movers that your looking for you can write a review. Have a great day Elsie

Does all moving companies have to have a USDOT number or PUC number? What is the difference?

Adam P

Link

5 years, 10 months ago

All moving companies that travel over State lines must hold a USDOT active number. This ensures that the house hold goods carrier has active insurance and licensing to perform your move. A PUC number is normally for local moving companies within the State that they are in. Most States follow the guidelines of the DOT but different requirements exist depending in what State carrier is operating out of. We would advise you to only book with a licensed mover. Most people look for moving companies near me or the area close to where you live so Moving Authority posts PUC & USDOT information for the benefit of our user.

Good Day,

If moving to a different state, would it not be easier to find a company in the state I am moving to, or is there a way to look for a company that has offices in both the state I am moving from to where I am moving too?

Adam Peterson

5 years, 8 months ago

Hi Cathy. Moving companies send trucks out on jobs all the time and travel is part of the territory. Actually the moving company you choose should be in the state/city that you are currently living in. They will send their truck to you locally and then take all your items to your new location. If you decided you want an on site estimate for your home you need to choose a company that is located where you currently are (not where you are moving) Hope this helps! Click on our "moving companies" link at the top of this page to search by state for a mover near you.

We don't have a moving company in our home town. If we ask for a home estimate, will they charge us to come to the house and give us a quote?

Ashley Richmond

Hey Joan, we recommend that you find a mover that is closest to your home town and have them do an estimate. You can ask if they will charge you. Only have those that agree to not charge you come by and do an estimate for you. This would be the best way to make sure you are not charged for an estimate.

Depends how far you are off the grid. You could use our Moving Calculator or you could ask the moving company to use Skype. If you have a smart phone then you can walk around your home and show the estimator what you are moving. This is a great way to do it. The real thing you need to provide movers is the inventory so they can do the numbers for your move. Try choose a mover that travel your route. Best of luck and fill in the moving calculator now.

Hi, if I'm planning to move to Canada, am I able to use a mover in the states to move or should I look for a mover in Canada? At the moment I am living in Southern California but I was wondering if moving companies in the states have partnerships with moving companies in our neighboring country. We still have lots of time to plan our move but we just wanted to think ahead before its too late for us to plan it out. We were planning to contact the moving companies that we were interested in and ask if they can move us across the border but we wanted to see if there was an easier way to find the companies that are able to do so. We know that it will cost a bit more to be able to move to another country but we just wanted to know which companies will provide the most competitive pricing for the job. We don't mind paying extra money but we also want to make sure the company doing the job is experienced in this type of move and is able to complete the job properly. If there is any way you can help us, we would appreciate it a lot. If you are able to, thanks in advance for your help. Thanks for the website as well as it allows us to sort through moving companies more easily.

Hi Marie! We recommend that you find a mover here and explain to them your moving situation. If they are not able to accommodate your move to Canada, keep searching for a company near your area that will. Some companies have or are able to make connections to moving companies in Canada. What will likely happen is the company will bring your items to the border and the Canadian company will pick it up and bring it to your new place. Just be sure the moving company you start with is the right one for the job. You can do this by reading their reviews on our website.

Hi Fanco! We're glad you find our site informative. I think the best way to get a moving company that will properly take care of your things is to read reviews of moving companies that you are interested in. If the moving companies in your city have bad reviews, look for moving companies in cities nearby and find ones that have great reviews. This is probably the best way to find the best moving company for your needs.

This is interesting! I’d never thought it could be this easy for me to find movers near me. That means the movers are just a few clicks away. I’m having an issue here, please. Someone recommended a company which is near me. I have started arrangements with them but felt like visiting this page just for more information. I just discovered the company is poorly rated by four reviewers. I’m calling off my contract with them coz I wouldn’t want anything less. My concern now is if it’s the best choice for me coz they have not responded in a way that looks unprofessional yet.

I think the reviews on our website is the best way to avoid any moving nightmares later on during your move. If the company already has bad reviews from four previous customers, we highly recommend that you reconsider your move with them. It's always better to go with a mover with better reviews even though it may cost more because the quality of service that you will be getting will save you money due to your items being in good hands.

I'm just not sure what the difference between any of them is. Looking at reviews on MA.....

Ashley Richmond

The best way to compare prices between moving companies is to look at the web pages of each company you're interested in. If they do not have web pages, it would be best to give them a call and ask. Moving companies generally do not like to put up information on their prices online due to other companies trying to beat them at their pricing.

Looking for a moving company is really stressing me out. Hope I can find one before the end of the year because i would really like to sell my home soon. Does anyone have any advice for choosing a moving company?

Ashley Richmond

Our advice is to just look for a mover in or near your area and read the reviews for that mover. The reviews generally tell you the experience you will be expected to get with that mover so if a mover has bad reviews, it's generally a good idea to look for another mover to help you on your move.

Do you think movers located in the northern states will be more likely be able to move residents to Canada? I'm looking for a moving company who can accommodate us but I want an American moving company to help move our belongings. We tried looking for Canadian movers online but it was sort of difficult so we decided to try looking for American movers on your site. Our plan is to contact moving companies located in the north and ask if they move customers across the border.

Hi Sarah,

If you are looking to move to Canada, considering moving companies in northern states will definitely be a good thing to do as these movers will be more likely able to move you across the border since many of their customers may ask for the same service. I would go to the state pages of the states closest to your home or where your home is located. Just compare the best movers in your area and decide from there what company works best for you.
