Chicago moving companies at a glance

We found 136 moving companies based in the Chicago area that are registered with FMCSA to carry household goods, have updated their registration in the last three years and run at least one truck. Together they report 1,043 trucks.

  • 102 hold active interstate household-goods authority, so they can legally carry a move to another state.
  • 28 are registered for moves within Illinois only.
  • 50 have been on the USDOT register for 10 years or more. The median is 6 years. The longest-registered, Hollander International Storage And Moving Company INC, was added in 1974.
  • 32 run five or more trucks. Larger fleets usually have more scheduling flexibility, but size alone says nothing about quality.

Where they're based: Chicago (59), Skokie (12), Elk Grove Village (7), Arlington Heights (7), Morton Grove (5), Naperville (4), Schaumburg (4), Wheeling (4), Franklin Park (3), Woodridge (3).

How companies are listed

Listings come from the FMCSA Company Census File, the federal register of companies with a USDOT number (data as of 2026-11-15). We include active registrations that list household goods as cargo, have a moving-related business name, a registration updated within three years, and at least one truck. Order is by fleet size by default. We don't accept payment for placement on this list. If we ever show sponsored companies, they will be clearly labelled. A listing is not an endorsement, and the register doesn't include customer reviews or prices. Report an error or request a correction.

How to choose a mover in Chicago

  1. Moving to another state? Use the Interstate filter above and check the company's FMCSA record.
  2. Moving within Illinois? Check the state license too. See below.
  3. Get at least three written estimates after a video or in-home survey.
  4. Compare valuation coverage, the type of estimate and the delivery window, not just the price.
  5. Avoid companies that ask for a large deposit or quote without seeing your belongings. Scam red flags.

Local moving considerations in Chicago

High-rise buildings

Downtown and lakefront buildings usually require a reserved freight elevator, a certificate of insurance and moves during set hours.

Alleys and street parking

Many homes are best reached from the alley. Tell movers about alley access and whether the truck can park out front.

Weather

Winter moves are often cheaper and easier to book, but snow and ice can slow loading. Ask how the mover protects floors and furniture in bad weather.

Illinois licensing

Movers working within Illinois must be licensed by the Illinois Commerce Commission. You can check a mover and its complaint history through the ICC.

Licensing: checking a Chicago mover

Illinois requires movers that carry household goods within the state to be licensed by the Illinois Commerce Commission (ICC). The ICC has an online search for licensed household goods movers and can tell you about complaints (217-782-6448).

For a move to another state, check the USDOT number on FMCSA. Step-by-step guide.

What movers cost in Chicago
