Choose how big the place is and the type of move; a ballpark range shows on the spot, with no phone call required. Inside a business hour, a fixed flat rate reaches you at no cost.
Either knock out the 60-second form or call the office and reach us straight away. Up front, three things do it — the two ZIP codes, your move date, and the size of the home. No payment, no signature, and no follow-up calls hounding you later.
A firm price in writing reaches you within a business hour, with no hourly meter and no fees slipped in down the line. Whatever we put in writing is what stands on move day, with no clock quietly ticking up behind it. Does your property manager require a Certificate of Insurance? A Certificate of Insurance goes back to your building the same day.
Our movers arrive in uniform on a fully stocked truck — pads, dollies, runners, and tools aboard — and every one was background-checked and drug-screened before earning a spot on the crew. Packing, carrying out, the run across town, the carry-in, and resetting each room — we own every link of that. The rest of your week stays yours.
Walk us through the job and our crew handles the rest. Whether it is a walk-up studio four flights up or a five-bedroom house, a quick hop across the neighborhood or a haul across the map — Forrester Moving has the trucks, gear, and miles behind it for any Chicagoland job.
One written flat rate and a uniformed crew that knows the difference between a Lakeview three-flat and a Loop high-rise — booked same-week, anywhere across Chicagoland.
Learn more →Every interstate haul rolls under our own US DOT number, stays GPS-tracked from the alley to the new driveway, and the price is signed before the truck pulls onto the Kennedy.
Learn more →Our own crew pads the furniture, carries it down the back stairs, drives the truck themselves, and sets the rooms back up — no day-labor handoffs, start to finish.
Learn more →We book the freight elevator window, get your management office its COI on time, and send movers who've wrestled couches up Wicker Park walk-ups and through downtown loading docks alike.
Learn more →We pack one room at a time, from the stemware to the framed prints, in fresh cartons — you don't tape a single box or carry one down to the stoop.
Learn more →Closing dates not lining up? We hold your things in a clean, climate-controlled unit out of the lake-effect damp and bill by the day or the week, no long contract.
Learn more →Boards, straps, and quilted pads for uprights, baby grands, and consoles — down narrow Bridgeport staircases or up a Gold Coast elevator without a mark.
Learn more →You rent and drive the truck or pod; our crew does the heavy lifting and tight Tetris-packing by the hour, with no minimum and no surprise fees.
Learn more →Unhurried downsizing help for moving out of the longtime two-flat — we sort, pad, label, and get everything settled at the new place at your pace.

“I was sick of watching customers' furniture come off the truck scuffed, so he built a small crew that pads and shrink-wraps every piece before it moves”
Grew up in a Norwood Park bungalow on the Northwest Side. Today Nate is on most job sites in person, which keeps the quote honest and means the movers at your door are the ones we trained in our own shop.
Smoothest move we could have asked for. They handed me one written number up front, showed at 7 sharp, and had everything padded before it hit the truck. Carried a heavy armoire down a tight Lincoln Park staircase and not one wall got scuffed.

Clearing out a Logan Square two-flat we'd been in for years, third-floor walk-up and all, and the crew never lost their cool. They Tetris-packed the truck so well it took one trip instead of two. Saved us a fortune in hourly.

Last time I moved, Carter was in the White House. They shrink-wrapped every last lamp and dresser and the whole day went by so quietly I barely noticed. Even hauled my old upright down without a scratch. Lovely crew.

Picked up the phone every time and showed when they said they would. They sorted the permit parking out front so the truck wasn't double-parked on Belmont blocking the street. Had me into the new place fast.

Moved us from the city out to Naperville and treated every box like it was their own. The flat rate didn't move a dollar off the estimate even with the longer drive down 88. They're who I'll call next time.

Solid move and the pricing was honest. Four stars only because I had to call twice to lock the schedule down. Once the crew was actually on Clark St, though, everything went off without a hitch.

Showed up on time in the middle of a nasty lake-effect snow and still got it done. Laid floor runners so nothing tracked slush through the house, and not a single thing got banged up. First call if I move again.

Had my rental truck loaded in under three hours and they packed it tight so nothing shifted. Gentle with all of it, even the grandkids' artwork. The day I unload I'm calling them right back.
