"The move started out good, in my opinion. The team of three workers packed very quickly all of my household items. I was pleased with the speed of getting my belongings packed. I arrived at my new location about 10 to 15 minutes before they arrived. I waited until they arrived and showed them how to get to the rear of the apartment building. I went upstairs to my apartment to unlock the door so they could begin bringing in the bags and boxes. I am alone. I don't have no friend or family member to assist me with supervising the team. One of the workers, Miguel, showed me my small antique lamp that got damaged. I said okay. He apologized for the damage. Later during the move I was told by Donna that my credit card could not be accepted for the Overtime charge of $123.27. Donna told me I must pay cash for the overtime charge which is not my fault. So once again, I left the workers alone with my belongings and went out to get the cash for the overtime and the $75 dollar tip for each worker. I spent an additional $348.27 with this company. $123.27 overtime plus $225.00 tips. After the workers left I felt that something was not right with the move. Later that evening I worked very hard opening the bags and boxes. To my dismay I discovered kitchen items, electronics, clothing, my expensive binoculars, glassware, baking pans, cellphone equipment gone missing. I came to the conclusion that Advanced Moving and Storage Inc is not a quality moving company. During my telephone conversations with Donna and the Owner I told them that I regretted hiring your company and I would never do business with you again. I am seeking a refund of the $889.00 for the Unpacking Service that I cancelled on Thursday May 29, 2025. Would also like to receive a full or 50 percent refund of the entire expenditures totalling $1755.78 (Visa) + $889.00 (Visa) + $123.27 (Cash) + $225.00 (Cash) Equals $2,993.05"

**PLEASE CLICK OUR SHOP BUTTON!!** ALL OF OUR DEALS ARE ALL INCLUSIVE WITH SHRINK WRAP, TAPE AND WARDROBE SERVICE!! When we started out, we wanted to streamline the moving process for clients in the Chicagoland area. We felt that the current local industry was inundated with way too many fees and charges and that customers came away feeling like they were being "nickel and dimed" for everything. What we found was that by building everything into a full service, simple quote system, with no additional fees, customers overwhelmingly responded with an unanimous thumbs up. Simple and stress free, easy to understand and easily meeting expectations. This has become our thumbprint. You will LOVE the way we move!
"Blankenship movers were on time. They were very professional, friendly and courteous, careful as well as efficient with time. Everything was handled and packed with care. I would hire them again."

"Mighty Movers stands out as the finest out as the finest moving company I have ever encountered. Their honesty and reliability are unmatched, and they treat your belongings with the utmost care, as if they were handling precious treasures. Having moved several times in the past, I often faced disappointing experiences—items damaged, unprofessional staff who seemed to drag their feet just to inflate the bill, or exorbitant charges that were never disclosed upfront. As a widow, I felt particularly anxious about finding a trustworthy mover. When I spoke with Mr. Robbie Seidel, I was still exploring my options, but his genuine demeanor immediately put me at ease. Taking a leap of faith, I chose Mighty Movers, and it turned out to be the best decision I could have made. I am incredibly thankful to have discovered this honest company, which employs only and hardworking individuals from start to finish. On moving day, the crew arrived punctually and worked diligently without wasting a moment. I was genuinely impressed by how quickly and efficiently the three team members operated, all while treating my belongings with the utmost gentleness. They handled everything, whether fragile or not, as if it were their own. I am quite particular about my possessions, and I was relieved to find everything in perfect condition after the move. They even took the time to assemble my furniture, completing the job right on schedule as Mr. Robbie Seidel had promised. If you are in search of a dependable and honest moving company, look no further. Hiring Mighty Movers will be a decision you won’t regret. I am more than 100% satisfied with their service, and should I ever need to move again, they will be my first choice without a doubt!"

FAQs for moving projects in Chicago, IL
Before hiring a moving company to help you with your move, there are a few things you will want to ask, including:
Is there anything your company won’t move?
Does workers’ compensation cover the crew?
Will you disassemble and reassemble the furniture?
Are there packing restrictions?
Can you guarantee my delivery date?
Can you provide references?
What do you charge extra for?
What is your cancellation policy?
Moving insurance helps protect your belongings from damage or loss during the moving process. This policy can help reimburse you either part of or the total amount of your belongings that become damaged during the moving process. Moving insurance has three main options: full value protection, released value protection, and third-party or separate liability coverage. Speak with your moving company to determine what is covered under each policy and their cost to determine the best fit for your needs.
The average cost to hire movers is between $920 and $2,530 for local moves and $2,700 to $10,000 for long-distance moves. The number of movers you need, the total mileage you’re moving, your moving date, and ease of access to your home all factor into the bottom line.
For example, if you only need one or two movers, you can expect to pay $25 to $50 an hour. However, if you need four or more movers, that charge increases to $100 to $200 an hour. Moving specialty items, like a piano or large aquarium, will incur additional charges.
In the world of professional moving, moves are broken up into two categories—a local move and a long-distance move. A local move is anything considered under 100 miles, regardless if you’re crossing over state lines. A long-distance move is anything over 100 miles, even if you stay in the same state or location.
If you’re hiring movers to help with your move, there are a few things that you can do ahead of time to set yourself (and the moving company) up for success.
Donate or sell items ahead of time to lessen the amount to move
Alert your neighbors (or apartment management) of the move so they can plan for the moving truck to arrive
Pack your belongings securely ahead of your moving date
Disconnect any appliances prior to the moving date
Clear a path for the movers to move freely inside your home
Dispose of hazardous materials
Discuss with your moving coordinator where to unload the boxes
