Moving in Joliet
Chicago high-rises are strict: reserved freight elevator, certificate of insurance, and often a hard cutoff time. Downtown loading also needs a permit for a truck over a certain length. Scheduling in Joliet is easier than in the state's largest city, and that is worth knowing if your dates are not flexible. The closest market we also cover is Aurora, 20 miles out. The nearest large market outside Illinois is Milwaukee, WI, about 120 miles and 1 day away.
Nothing about a Joliet job goes out to a bidder. The estimate, the crew and the truck all come from the same company, which is the whole reason to call a carrier instead of a broker.

Moving in Joliet: common questions
Which Joliet ZIP codes do you cover?
60431, 60432, 60433, 60434, 60435, 60436. An address on the edge of the city limits changes nothing about the price — it only matters for whether a full-size truck can reach the door.
How long does a move from Joliet take?
Local jobs load and unload the same day. Further out: Aurora, IL — 20 mi, 1 day; Chicago, IL — 40 mi, 1 day; Rockford, IL — 90 mi, 1 day. Past roughly 400 miles it becomes a long-haul schedule, and delivery is a window rather than a fixed hour.
Do you serve the rest of Will County?
Yes. Joliet is what people search for, but crews run throughout Will County and the surrounding towns.
What if my Joliet closing date moves?
It happens on a large share of moves, which is why storage in transit exists. Your shipment sits in a monitored warehouse and comes out when the new place is ready. Tell us early and it is a scheduling change rather than a scramble.
