“We could not be more pleased with our move! They did a great job and were amazing! Very friendly and hard working. We will use them again but hopefully we won’t be moving soon!”

We hold US DOT and MC authority for interstate work, so the same company that wraps your couch in Avondale is the company that carries it down I-55 or out the I-90 corridor. One crew, one truck, one binding number. Flat-rate long-distance moves start at $2,200, written and locked before we load.
Because it’s your truck and not a shared trailer, your delivery date is a real date, not a two-week guess. We schedule the drive, give you a tight arrival window, and you have our crew’s contact the entire way.
Why dedicated beats shared freight
Most low-ball long-distance quotes are shared loads: your things ride with other people’s, get handled at a warehouse, and arrive whenever the truck fills its route. Here’s the difference in plain terms.
One crew, end to end
The movers who pad-wrap and load in Chicago are the ones who unload at the other end. Nothing changes hands at a depot.
A real delivery window
Dedicated truck means we drive your route directly, not whenever a shared trailer happens to fill.
Fewer hands, fewer dings
Cross-loading is where damage happens. Loaded once, driven, unloaded once. That’s it.
How the price is built
A binding long-distance quote comes from weight or volume, the distance, and access on both ends. Starting point below.
| Component | How it works |
|---|---|
| Starting flat rate | From $2,200, binding written quote |
| Truck | Dedicated to your move, no shared loads |
| Deposit | $129 to lock the date, applied to total |
| Coverage | $0.60/lb released value; full-value optional, up to $1,000,000 cargo per shipment |
The drive out of Chicago
Where you land changes the route, and we plan it before the truck rolls. East and toward Indiana we take the I-90 corridor out past the Skyway; south and toward downstate Illinois or St. Louis it’s I-55, the Stevenson, straight out of the city. We watch the weather window too, because loading a dedicated truck in a January lake-effect snowstorm calls for a different morning than a clear July load. Either way the same crew that wrapped your things in Avondale stays with the shipment the whole way, so there’s no depot, no warehouse, and no stranger touching your furniture between here and your front door.
What’s not included
Long-haul storage at the destination if your new place isn’t ready (we’ll quote our Chicago short-term storage if you need a hold this end), and specialty items like a piano or safe (from $399). Packing is a separate service, but a fast packing crew can box you the day before so loading goes quick.
