I had Chris and crew help me load up and move into a pod for long-term storage. His whole crew were excellent, showed up on time. They helped me decide what could fit and what couldn’t when we got to the end which was a real struggle. Overall, I couldn’t be happier and I appreciate all the work that they’ve done. I’m happy that I have them scheduled to unload it all as well!

They handled the job with no problem, efficiently fitting everything in. They were on time, worked hard and were very respectful. I would definitely use them again.

Packed Moveing Services exceeded our expectations. The crew arrived on time and jumped right to work carefully prepping and loading our larger furntiure pieces into the POD. They never paused as they continued loading dozens of boxes, smaller furniture, bikes and more. These guys never slowed down... I got tired just watching them go at it with such high energy. Kendrick, Jose and Angel were all very personable and kept us informed of their activities all day long, trading questions and answers back and forth with us. Jose lived up to his nickname "Tetris Man" with the great job he did planning how to fit everything tightly into the POD. When the loading was done, they went back into the house and helped us straghten up. We also found David Martinez to be vert easy to deal with in setting up the move. We highly recommend Packed Moving Services to handle your POD packing and other moving needs.

We had recent bad luck with movers, so we were hesitant to hire movers again. However, IJC was great. They called ahead and had me send photos of any items that were questionable (they were fine). They showed up inside the arrival window and performed a thorough walk-through before starting. The crew lead said that the job would take a little longer than the estimate and he asked if we wanted them to stop at the cut-off time or finish the job (very considerate!). The 3 crew members were hard working, polite, and asked questions when needed. They were careful, and nothing was damaged in the move! They are worth the money, and I would be happy to hire them again.

Real Advice from Chicago Movers

We asked local movers about what you should know about moving in Chicago. (They’re really nice!)

"Chicago is a very busy place so I would recommend being prepared for traffic and a lot of people. If traveling into or out of Chicago give yourself an extra hour of traveling time."

Family Of Movers Profile Image - Family Of Movers

"In and around the Chicagoland area if you have a move that may cause restriction of traffic (either vehicle or pedestrian), you should check in with your area's alderman office "

Fast and Reliable Service Profile Image - Fast and Reliable Service

"Check with village or local alderman for PODS requirements inside the city. We have seen customers have issues with getting PODS left on the street."

Logan Lift Express Profile Image - Logan Lift Express

"Hire professional movers in Chicago! City streets and alleys in Chicago are narrow and it's difficult to maneuver large moving trucks. Plus, if you don't have a commercial license, you will surely get a parking ticket."

Coffey Bros. Moving Profile Image - Coffey Bros. Moving

"We often obtain parking permits for customers moving in and around the city. With just a couple days advance notice, we can utilize our contract with the City of Chicago to come out and put parking restrictions on trees, light poles and fences so that our truck(s) can park safely and efficiently for any move."

Melendez Moving Profile Image - Melendez Moving

"To save money get your boxes and tape from the local U-Haul store. I find that on boxes they have great deals. Other places like Home Depot are good, but U-Haul has the best deals."

Major Neighborhoods in Chicago

Professional movers know the ins and outs of Chicago, from Lincoln Park to Uptown, ensuring there are no surprises on Moving Day. Trust the movers to secure parking permits, and schedule your move during less congested hours to streamline the process and ensure a smooth transition.

Lakeview

Lakeview is synonymous with baseball, so when you're moving in, be sure to factor in the streets nearest Wrigley Field, the Chicago Cubs' stomping ground. Lake Michigan is right nearby, and not far is Belmont Harbor, where you’ll find boats, tennis, golf, or a relaxing day by the water. And don’t forget to check out Briar Street Theatre and the Southport Corridor! Secure parking permits in advance, consider the timing to beat the traffic, and hire professional movers experienced with all of Lakeview's little quirks.

Lincoln Park

Lincoln Park is home of the aptly named Lincoln Park Zoo, one of America's oldest zoos, and still completely free to visit! This famous North Side neighborhood also has a famous conservatory and a botanical garden. And if you're up for a little whimsy, check out Oz Park – a playful nod to the Wizard of Oz. Otherwise, there are no flying monkeys, but the city layout, parking, and traffic can be bothersome. It’s highly recommended you hire professional movers familiar with the area, so getting to your new home will be as easy as three heel clicks!

South Side

Chicago's South Side is a patchwork of cool neighborhoods, all connected with incredible highlights. (It's the place to go for a legit Chicago-style hot dog!) Hyde Park has sights to see with lakefront spots, from the 31st Street Beach to the chill Promontory Point. And when it comes to music, blues and gospel is the vibe, but there are also festivals galore, as well as venues like the Checkerboard Lounge. No matter what you're into, movers in Chicago will be able to drive down Commercial Ave with ease.

Uptown

Uptown is music heaven for all you music aficionados out there. It's home to the Green Mill Jazz Club, where legends like Charlie Parker and Billie Holiday made their mark. The Aragon Ballroom, the Riviera Theater, and the Uptown Theater are also here, ready to entertain you with shows of every flavor. All that brings in tough traffic and parking, but professional movers will get you past Lawrence and Broadway and to your new place, so you can take a break and head to Little Vietnam for some incredible eats while your new Uptown home is getting set up.

10,929 Chicago Mover Reviews

On average, movers on HireAHelper earn 4.8 stars out of 5.0 after 290,032 verified customer reviews

In Chicago, movers get plenty of praise for their ability to handle challenging situations with ease, from navigating narrow staircases to expertly packing moving trucks. Customers also appreciate their punctuality and efficiency, such as one reviewer highlighting how their movers were able to unload a 20’ U-Haul up five flights of stairs in just two hours. But the teams don’t trade speed for quality, either. Many customers also note that the movers’ careful handling of fragile items and excellent communication throughout the process stand out, making their moves feel seamless and stress-free. It’s no surprise they all say they’d gladly hire their movers again.

Seriously, these two guys showed up and, over the course of two hours, made a ton of my problems simply vanish to the dumpster out back. I am so thankful! The guys were super cool too. HUGE THANKS!

Fantastic job, very kind and caring men. These movers went above and beyond what they needed to do. They were patient and understanding and reassured both our senior citizen and her caregiver that everything would be done safely. They were professional and on time. We were all truly blessed meeting these employees!

The guys worked quickly, stayed focused and were respectful. They were very patient and also continued the job even with my 4 year old insisting on helping too. I appreciated the updates and date/time confirmations beforehand as well.

A great experience! Tyrone and Darnell were courteous and capable and got all of my furniture up the stairs and into my place within the planned timeframe. Nothing is damaged. I’d use them again. Thank you!

Arrived on time, and very professional. Had a couple hiccups along the way-but the owner of the company responded almost immediately and came himself to our house to ensure everything was moved efficiently and packed into our pod. Great customer service response and truly can tell that this company cares about the work they do.

Lloyd and his brother did an amazing job helping us pack our house into a storage pod. They clearly have experience in their trade and know exactly how to navigate it all. They worked hard and went above and beyond to help us. They were very professional and friendly. Easy to work with. We definitely recommend using Lloyd Moving and Labor.
