How we ranked the top Ohio movers

Why you should trust us

We take reviews seriously to protect people just like you! Our team has been crunching data on moving companies since 2010. Our math-based ranking system uses data, manual review, and statistical analysis to help you hire the best movers in Ohio.

Rating Methodology

Here's the methodology we used to come up with the best movers in Ohio:

Our data scientist working on the years of experience formula

Our original review-based ranking algorithm

We started with a total of 558 companies that offer moving services in the Ohio area.

From these 558 companies, we analyzed a total of 81,863 reviews dating all the way back to October 2007.

We also reviewed a total of 189 state and federal moving licenses from these 558 companies and 1,788 different 3rd party review and social profiles.

Each of the ~81,000 reviews was scored according to our detailed 11-point rating criteria

This gave us a total of 196,235 data points to compute individual company scores.

Reviews are time-weighted so that more recent reviews carry more weight. This helps you understand how a mover is doing today... not 5 years ago. We have 25,475 Akron moving company data points from the past 2 years that carry more weight.

Bayesian averages calculated to fairly account for the differences between companies that are newer.
