Landmarks, Buildings, and Streets We Move Around Every Week

Local Know-How That Actually Matters on Move Day

The Near North Side is heavily high-rise - and that changes how you move. Many homes here are in large buildings (20+ unit properties), and parking isn’t “easy” so much as “possible with a plan.” We come prepared with the right equipment (dollies, furniture pads, floor runners, straps) and we coordinate around building rules so your move doesn’t turn into a lobby standoff with security.

Relocating to the Near North Side

Near North Side is one of Chicago’s most central and fast-growing community areas. CMAP's community snapshot puts the population at 107,331 with a median household income of about $124,208 (2020-2024 ACS five-year estimates). It’s an area built for urban living: a high share of one-person households, strong public transportation access, and plenty of walkable amenities.

Real Estate and Renting in the Near North Side

Housing here ranges from historic Gold Coast walk-ups to luxury condos and modern rental towers. Prices and rents vary widely by building, view, and bedroom count. If you’re moving into a managed building, expect requirements like move-in deposits, COI paperwork, and scheduled elevator times.

Getting Around: CTA, Parking, and Timing

CTA access is excellent - with Red Line stops like Chicago and Grand, plus Brown/Purple Line access at Merchandise Mart, and frequent buses along Michigan, Clark, State, and Chicago Ave. That’s great for daily life, but it also means move-day traffic can spike fast. We schedule smart, plan truck access, and (when needed) help you think through parking permits and loading zones.

Things to Do After You Unpack

Once you’re moved in, you’ve got Chicago’s greatest hits right outside your door: shop the Magnificent Mile, catch the lakefront at Oak Street Beach, explore the Riverwalk, visit the Museum of Contemporary Art, and take visitors to Navy Pier without needing a full-blown expedition.

Moving To or From Nearby Neighborhoods

If you’re moving between nearby areas, we can help with fast, same-day moves and building-to-building transfers:

• Gold Coast
• River North
• Streeterville
• Old Town
• Lincoln Park
• The Loop

Packing and Protection for High-Rise Moves

We can pack and protect your place properly - especially helpful for elevator moves and long hallways. We use quality pads, shrink wrap, and floor protection so your furniture (and the building) stays in one piece.
