A Moving Guide: All moving companies are not created equal!

They looked for companies that can accommodate travel anywhere in the country, have helpful FAQ sections on their websites, a “painless” quote process (which typically takes about 10 minutes), and a readily available claims department.

“Moving is a pain, and even if you hire the best moving company, it’s no guarantee that it will be any less so,” Reviews.com notes in its guide. “But a great service will be friendly and efficient online, on the phone, and in person—and if it has a good track record of getting from point A to point B without a mishap, all the better.”

Reviews.com picked the following top moving companies:

Atlas Van Lines
Bekins Moving and Storage
United
Mayflower
