This year\u2019s study began with an initial review of more than 36,000 moving companies nationwide. From there, researchers conducted an in-depth assessment of over 3,700 companies operating across all 50 states and the District of Columbia.<\/p>\n<p>The methodology integrates five major components:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>  Nationwide customer survey: Over 17,000 consumers rated movers on key satisfaction drivers, including care of belongings, punctuality and overall experience.  <\/li>\n<li>  Review-based sentiment analysis: Over 2 million online customer reviews from the last five years were analyzed.  <\/li>\n<li>  DOT &amp; FMCSA verification: Federal records confirmed each company\u2019s physical address and interstate operating authority.  <\/li>\n<li>  Media &amp; public records screening: Companies were reviewed for adverse media, legal issues or safety concerns; those with major findings were excluded.  <\/li>\n<li>  Final scoring: A proprietary model combined all survey, sentiment and research data. States needed at least 30 evaluated companies, and each mover required 100+ reviews to qualify. Only the highest-scoring moving companies in each state earned a place on the 2026 list.  <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\u201cFor more than thirty years, our dedication to making sure we are always Moving Happiness Home\u2122 has created happy team members which creates happy clients, happy homes and happy communities.
