Review Analysis

Bellhop Moving draws applause for professional, courteous staff and speedy, efficient moves. Customers’ input highlights careful handling of belongings, clear communication, and a straightforward booking process. Many describe movers as friendly, organized, and respectful of both property and timelines.

Yet, some feedback details significant issues, such as property damage, late or no-shows, and communication breakdowns. A sizable portion of feedback reveals frustration with damages and unresolved complaints, especially when compared to other services where reliability and handling of items were stronger. While most customers report smooth, affordable moves with attentive teams, those experiencing scheduling problems or delayed arrivals faced extra stress. Across 56 reviews, 63% praised Bellhop’s professionalism and efficiency, while roughly 36% encountered unpredictable timing or carelessness. Bellhop Moving receives broad endorsements for professionalism but falls short for some on reliability and item safety.

FAQs

What else should you know about moving out of state?

A moving company helping you move out of Missouri must be properly licensed and have a U.S. Department of Transportation number. Of course, all the Hannibal movers we’ve included on this list have everything in order, but you can check for yourself on the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration’s database.

If you’re moving from one state to another, you’ll want to familiarize yourself with the Your Rights and Responsibilities When You Move document from the FMCSA.

Should I use a local company or a national company when moving from Hannibal?

If you’re moving across town, a local moving company in Hannibal is going to be the most cost-effective approach. If you’re moving out of Missouri, using a national moving company like Safeway Moving comes with more experience. That experience — along with the increased mileage — typically means higher costs than with local relocations.

When is the cheapest time of year to move away from Hannibal?

Moving companies in Hannibal are usually slower in November and December due to the holidays and kids being in school, so you can negotiate with a mover more during those months and save some money.

What are the cheapest ways to move out of Hannibal?

DIY moving will always be cheaper, especially when moving within 50 miles of Hannibal. The cheapest options for moving out of Hannibal are usually renting a moving truck like U-Haul or a moving container like PODS. We’ve also got a helpful guide if you’re looking for the cheapest ways to move out of state.
