How we ranked the top Altamont 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 Altamont, NY.

Rating Methodology

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

$Our data scientist working on the years of experience formula$

Our original review-based ranking algorithm

We started with a total of 11 companies that offer moving services in the Altamont area.

From these 11 companies, we analyzed a total of 905 reviews dating all the way back to June 2010.

We also reviewed a total of 0 state and federal moving licenses from these 11 companies and 43 different 3rd party review and social profiles.

Each of the ~0 reviews was scored according to our detailed 11-point rating criteria

This gave us a total of 2,978 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 280 Altamont 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(like King Piano Moving) vs older more established companies (like U-Pack).
