Moving can be stressful, but finding the right moving company doesn’t have to be. With so many movers and moving companies out there, how do you decide who to trust with your belongings? At Eagle Star Moving, we’ve helped countless clients navigate the moving process, and we’re here to share our expert tips on how to choose the best moving company for your needs.
Whether you’re relocating across town or across the country, picking the right movers can make all the difference. Follow these simple steps to find a reliable moving company that fits your budget and requirements.
Step 1: Start with Research
The first step to finding the best movers is research.
- Read Reviews: Check Google, Yelp, or social media for feedback about moving companies in your area.
- Ask for Recommendations: Friends, family, or neighbors may have trusted suggestions.
- Compare Services: Not all movers offer the same services. Look for specialized options, like home moving, piano movers, or business moving, depending on your needs.
“Choosing the right moving company starts with doing your homework. Reviews and recommendations can save you time and stress!”
Step 2: Get Moving Quotes
One of the most important factors when choosing movers is pricing.
- Request Multiple Quotes: Reach out to at least three moving companies to compare rates.
- Ask ‘What’s Your Price?’: Ensure quotes include everything—services like packing, apartment moving, and potential extra fees.
- Beware of Low Prices: If a price seems too good to be true, it probably is. Reputable companies like Eagle Star Moving provide transparent and competitive pricing.
Step 3: Verify Credentials
Trustworthy movers and packers will be licensed and insured.
- Check Licenses: For interstate moves, ensure the company has a U.S. DOT number.
- Insurance: Confirm that the company offers liability coverage for your belongings.
Step 4: Ask About Their Services
The best movers offer comprehensive moving services, tailored to your needs. Questions to ask include:
- Do you provide packing services?
- Can you handle specialty items like pianos?
- Do you offer business moving options for office relocations?
- What size moving trucks are available?
- How do I start a moving quote with your team?

Islom and his team were wonderful! They were extremely efficient with making sure nothing got damaged and all items were handled with care. They loaded and unloaded within a timely manner (much faster than what we had previously experienced with other moving companies in the past) and were extremely helpful for our move. Thank you to Islom and his team for all of their help!
