Today's Homeowner looks at dozens of datapoints on moving companies to come up with our data-driven rankings. It's not possible for a company to pay for preferential treatment in our rankings. We look at the following key factors in determining who should top our list:
Different types of moves work best with different movers. The first step in hiring a moving company is deciding whether a national or local company is best. Movers can also be split into full-service and self-service. Full-service movers provide packing and loading services, which can be great if you're someone who hates packing boxes. Self-service movers provide a truck and a driver, but you'll be expected to have all your items packed when they arrive.
Next, you can find out which moving companies near you meet the licensing requirements for movers in Texas. You can also browse online reviews and look at the company's BBB rating. Every company on our list of the best movers in Laredo is well-reviewed and selected by our expert team.
After narrowing down your list, you can start calling companies. We recommend that you speak with at least one or two of the movers from our list for estimates. Make sure that you explain all of the services you may need for your move. Also, be sure that their estimate is a "binding estimate" – otherwise, the actual cost may be subject to change.

You will probably want to avoid moving in May or August specifically, as the 14,291 college students attending school within 15 miles of Laredo will be moving in those months as well.
There is also the weather to consider. Laredo's temperatures tend to be hot. Your move will likely be inconvenient and possibly dangerous if you move on a day where the weather is too hot.
To check a mover's reputation, you can:
The ideal time to book your move is four to six weeks beforehand. If you book later, you may pay more and have a harder time finding available movers.
