How to Pick a Local Moving Company

When looking for a local moving company or local packers and movers, knowing where to start can be very tough, even if you’ve moved plenty of times in the past. There are a ton of professional moving companies out there, and it’s easy to get overwhelmed with all of the choices you might have. Additionally, just searching for one in the sea of Google results can leave you bombarded with calls from moving companies that don’t have your best interests in mind. 

When looking for a reputable moving company, look for Fuller Moving Services. We go above and beyond for all of our customers, and have over 60 years in the business that provides us with the experience you’ll want to have on your side when tackling your relocation. 

How to Choose Local Packers & Movers

When searching for the right local movers for you, you’ll probably be bombarded with options and promises from moving companies, and will be left not knowing which place could possibly be the best for you. 

Before just going with any moving company, take into account the following factors, and take steps to make sure this company is right for you. 

  • Ask Friends & Family

The best way to look for moving companies is by asking the people you trust the most about their experiences with the companies they’ve used in the past. 

  • Don’t Settle

Don’t settle for the first estimate you receive from a random moving company. Shop around and get quotes or estimates from a variety of companies in order to get the right place. 

  • Beware of Red Flags

Make sure to avoid moving scams or places that ask for cash deposits. Take note of how professional the people who come to do your quote are, and note their conduct. Additionally, never let a company charge you for a quote – or not give one at all prior to moving day. 

  • Check Credentials

Make sure the movers you’re looking at are licensed and insured, and have the credentials or awards that they claim to have. Request a company’s U.S DOT number to save in case you need to file a claim, and verify the company’s license through the FMCSA’s protectyourmove.gov website. 

  • Check Reviews

Lastly, check a company’s reviews on a variety of sites, and check their Better Business Bureau score.
