"Best moving experience I have ever had! Tim and Big T Movers were wonderful to work with, right from the start. Responsive, efficient and punctual in helping us plan for our small business move. On moving day, they arrived on time, and were friendly and professional. Got the job done perfectly and made everything easy! Will use them again in future. I recommend them to anyone for any big or small moving projects!"

"It went great. Movers communicated ahead of time and helped me get ready for the move day. They were very careful while moving some very heavy items upstairs to move out and then downstairs to move in. They did exactly what they promised on arriving and moving our house and we’re more careful with it than I would have been"

"I’m really pleased with the service provided by Windy City! The movers were extremely professional, efficient, and friendly. They arrived on time, worked tirelessly throughout the entire move, and handled my belongings with great care. Despite the extreme heat, they maintained a positive attitude and completed the move as planned. The staff members were also very helpful and accommodating, assisting me with any questions or changes that I needed to make. The price was exactly as quoted, and I was delighted to discover that none of my items were damaged during the move. I highly recommend them to anyone in need of moving services!"

Moving questions, answered by experts

Products that are hazardous, such as aerosol sprays, top the list of what to leave behind during a move. Avoid packing perishables, garden and garage chemicals, pool supplies, compressed gases, and combustible items. If you are trying to move by yourself, you may want to downsize so you have fewer belongings to pack and move (and then unpack).

Generally, you should avoid using your car as a storage space if you’re using a shipping company.Your items could get lost or damaged during transport, and most shipping companies won’t cover the cost of damage. Contact the shipping company and ask about their policy ahead of time. Some companies may not allow you to leave anything but necessary paperwork in the car. 

Using moving pods is generally cheaper than hiring a full-service moving company, primarily because you handle the packing and loading yourself, which eliminates labor costs. The cost savings are most significant for long-distance or cross-country moves; for local moves, hiring a moving company might be the more economical option. Renting and shipping moving pods can cost between $2,000 and $5,000, depending on factors like distance, the number of containers, and the weight of your items. Some services also charge a monthly rental fee of $75 to $200. In comparison, hiring a professional moving company for a long-distance move typically costs between $2,700 and $10,000.

Tipping movers is not mandatory, and most professional companies do not expect it. However, it is a common way to show appreciation for their hard work and the care they take with your belongings and home. A standard tip is between 10% and 20% of your total bill, split among the crew, or about $10 per mover per hour, tipped individually. It's an especially good idea to tip if the movers work in difficult weather, handle specialty items like pianos or pool tables, provide extra packing services, or go above and beyond your expectations.

Start by removing any obstacles in the moving path, such as side tables, lamps, or other furniture. If your couch has legs, unscrew them. Measure the couch and the stairway to ensure you have enough room; if it seems unlikely, examine the shape and size of the couch and decide whether it might fit better up the stairway and through doorways on its side, held diagonally, or moved in an upright position.

Consider putting the sofa on a dolly to go up the stairs. It should be able to fit upright on a standard dolly with wheels. You’ll still need to lift the dolly—with the couch on it—up the stairs, but it will reduce the physical strain. The person holding the dolly should pull the couch up, while the helper should be on the other side, keeping the couch secure and steady.

If you don’t have a dolly, the person in front should lift the couch slightly higher than the person in the back to create more stability. The person in the back should also be the stronger mover, as most of the weight will be distributed there.
