Apartment & Condo Moving in Chicago
Moving in or out of a Chicago apartment comes with unique challenges — freight elevator reservations, narrow hallways, limited parking, and strict building rules. The Professionals Moving Specialists handles apartment and condo moves across Chicago every day. Our crews know the drill at hundreds of buildings across the city, from Loop high-rises to Logan Square walkups. We coordinate with building management so you can focus on settling into your new place.
High-Rise & Elevator Building Experts
Chicago's high-rise buildings have strict moving requirements — reserved freight elevators, mandatory COIs, padded elevator cabs, and specific move-in/move-out windows. We handle all of it. Our office coordinates directly with your building management to secure elevator reservations, deliver certificates of insurance, and confirm loading dock access. On move day, our crew arrives early to pad the elevator and lay floor runners, keeping your building happy and your security deposit intact.
Walkup Apartment Specialists
Chicago is full of charming walkup apartments — and challenging staircases. Our crews are trained and conditioned for multi-flight walkups, using proper lifting techniques and specialized equipment like stair-climbing dollies and forearm straps. We wrap and pad furniture before it ever hits the stairwell, protecting both your belongings and the building's walls, banisters, and doorframes.
Studio, One-Bedroom & Multi-Bedroom Moves
Whether you're in a studio on Lakeshore Drive or a three-bedroom in Lincoln Park, we size your crew and truck to match. Studio and one-bedroom moves typically need a two-person crew and take 2–3 hours. Larger apartments with more furniture may need a three- or four-person crew. We assess everything during your free estimate so there are no surprises on move day.
Building Coordination & Parking Logistics
Many Chicago buildings require advance notice, specific insurance certificates, and loading dock reservations. Street parking can be just as tricky — some moves require a city parking permit for the moving truck. We guide you through all of this during the planning process, and our office team handles the paperwork so you don't have to chase down forms and phone numbers.
