Moving.  The very word can stress a person out.  And that goes double for long distance moving. 

Not to worry: Midway’s expert long distance crews have helped thousands of customers have stress-free moves, whether they are moving to Chicago or moving from Chicago.

Really, moving to Chicago and moving from Chicago aren’t all that different from moving within Chicago - there just happens to be a few hundred, or thousand, more miles in between.  As with local moves, the first question is always “How much will my move cost?”  The same factors that affect a move within Chicago affect your move to Chicago or your move from Chicago, such as amount of furniture and distance between locations.  (Those factors are fully explained on our Chicago Movers page).  But there are other things to consider when you are moving to Chicago or moving from Chicago.

If budget is your main priority, here are some tips that may decrease the cost of your move to Chicago:

1. Book your move in advance, at least two or three weeks before your desired move date.
2. Be flexible about when you want your furniture and possessions delivered.
3. Ask about whether your items can be moved on a shared truck along with someone else’s things.  Your things will be completely separate inside the truck, but you’ll save transportation costs.  

That said, Midway performs next-day and same-day long distance moves all the time.  If you have a strict delivery date or wish to have only our things on the truck, we can certainly accommodate you.
