Moving company selection requires obtaining quotes from multiple carriers and evaluating services, insurance options, and customer reviews. Reputable companies provide binding estimates, carry proper licensing and insurance, and have positive ratings. Industry ratings from Better Business Bureau and review sites provide comparative information. Selection should consider full-service versus DIY options and long-distance versus local moving.
Pro Tip
Obtain written binding estimates from multiple companies. Never rely on phone quotes that may change.
Example
Comparing three moving company quotes with references and BBB ratings helps identify the best value and service level.
