A Chicago Move, Run by Chicago Movers
Twelve miles across this city can eat a whole morning if you hit Lake Shore Drive wrong, so we plan every booking around how the neighborhoods actually move rather than around the odometer. Forrester Moving owns its trucks and hires its movers as uniformed W-2 staff, never day labor and never a subcontracted crew. The team that wraps your dresser in Lakeview is the same team that walks it into your place in Andersonville.
Where Our Crews Run
We work the bungalow belt, the close-in suburbs, and everything dense in between: Lincoln Park walk-ups, Pilsen two-flats, Bridgeport cottages, Hyde Park courtyard buildings, the new construction past the Edens. Lake-effect storms are part of the job here, so when the curb is buried the crew clears and salts a path before the first dolly comes off the ramp.
Built Into Every Local Job
- Every piece padded and shrink-secured before it leaves the room
- Runners across both homes, with jambs and corners capped
- Beds, tables and shelving broken down and rebuilt for you
- Hardware bagged and labeled so screws never go missing
- An itemized inventory backed by our written no-damage promise
Pick the Price That Fits
Two ways to bill, and before you commit we’ll tell you which suits your particular address. A locked flat rate runs $395 for a studio or one-bed, $620 for a two-bed, and $910 for a three-bed. If your place is small or the hop is short, an hourly booking at $150/hr (two movers, two-hour minimum) usually undercuts the flat number.
Worth Knowing Up Front
Hourly jobs don’t include boxing up your kitchen unless you add packing. And while we’ll slide the washer into position, the actual gas and water hookups belong to a licensed tech.
