About the city
Your moving guide & local highlights in Chicago
Chicago’s moving industry operates across a broad metropolitan landscape, serving both the urban core and its surrounding suburbs. Moves typically take about 7 hours to complete, a reflection of the city’s diverse residential makeup—from downtown high-rises to historic brownstones and newer developments. On average, 2.3 movers are assigned to each job, balancing the needs of smaller apartments with those of larger homes and office spaces. Moving trucks range from 16 to 26 feet, allowing flexibility in handling different load sizes and accommodating the logistical demands posed by traffic, alleyways, and unpredictable weather. The busiest season runs through the summer, timed with school holidays and optimal moving conditions. Services span everything from in-town household moves to long-distance relocations, commercial projects, packing, temporary storage, and the transport of delicate items. With a well-developed infrastructure and consistent demand, Chicago remains a key hub for movers catering to a broad spectrum of residential and corporate clients.
