Services We Offer In Bensenville

Every service below starts from our Ellis Street location, a short drive from any address in the 60106 ZIP code.

Local Residential Moving

Our local moving service covers moves inside Bensenville and to nearby suburbs, from a one-bedroom apartment off Irving Park Road to a four-bedroom house in White Pines. Our movers load the truck, transfer your belongings, and place each piece in the room you choose at the new address. Because the truck leaves from inside the village, there is no long drive across the metro before loading starts. Larger households can read more about our residential moving service.

Long-Distance Moving From Bensenville

Bensenville sits minutes from I-290, I-294, and I-90, so a long-distance truck reaches the highway system soon after the last box goes on. Our long-distance fleet includes a sleeper truck that runs our key routes out of the Chicago area. Tell us your destination when you request a quote, and we will confirm the route and timing for your shipment. Details are on our long-distance moving page.

Storage

Storage covers the gap when a closing date and a move-in date do not line up, or when a Bensenville household downsizes and needs room for the overflow. We store goods in our own warehouse, and our movers handle both the trip into storage and the delivery out of it. One company runs the whole chain, so your belongings do not change hands between the move and the warehouse. See our storage page for how it works.

Commercial Warehouse And Distribution

Bensenville borders O’Hare International Airport and the Canadian Pacific Kansas City Bensenville Yard, and industrial parks such as the Bensenville Industrial Park sit close to the airport. We offer warehouse and distribution services for businesses in that corridor, including FF&E (furniture, fixtures, and equipment) handling and cross-docking, where inbound freight moves straight onto an outbound truck. Read more on our commercial moving page.

A Bensenville Moving Company Based On Ellis Street

Bensenville is our primary location. The office at 1159 N Ellis Street is open Monday through Friday from 8 AM to 5:30 PM and Saturday from 8 AM to 2 PM, and it is closed Sunday. Advanced Moving & Storage has operated since July 1984.

From Ellis Street, our movers also cover the towns around O’Hare, including Elmhurst, Itasca, Elk Grove Village, and Des Plaines. If you are moving between Bensenville and one of those suburbs, one estimate covers both ends of the job.

What Bensenville Movers Plan Around

Three local conditions shape how a move in the village gets scheduled and routed.

York Road And IL 390 Construction

The Illinois Tollway’s Elgin O’Hare Western Access project runs right through Bensenville. York Road improvement work has reduced York Road to one lane in each direction between Gateway Road and Foster Avenue, and the IL 390 extension east toward O’Hare has shifted Thorndale Avenue traffic onto new frontage roads. If your old or new home is near York Road or Thorndale Avenue, tell us when you request a quote so the truck’s approach can be planned around current lane closures. The Tollway posts daily construction alerts online, and they are worth checking the week of your move.

Village Truck Enforcement

The Bensenville Police Department runs a Truck Enforcement Unit that checks weight, size, and license classification on village roads. Any overweight or oversize vehicle needs a village permit, and a state permit only covers the state routes through town, such as IL Route 83 and IL Route 19. During your estimate, mention narrow streets, tight turns, or low branches at your address so the truck size matches the street.

Winter Moves And Street Clearance

Parking on every village street is prohibited after 2 inches of snowfall. A winter move in Bensenville needs a backup plan to load from the driveway or a private lot if snow arrives the night before. Build some flexibility into winter moving dates and talk it through with us when you book.

Moving Into Bensenville Homes And Apartment Buildings

Bensenville splits almost evenly between renters and owners, with about 49 percent of housing rented, so moves here happen in two very different kinds of buildings.

White Pines And The Older Single-Family Streets

White Pines, east of Route 83 and south of 3rd Avenue, is mostly single-family homes built in the 1940s and 1950s, running from about 1,600 to 2,500 square feet. Ask us to look at basement stairs and interior doorways during the estimate, since those decide how large furniture comes out of an older house. Some apartment communities on the White Pines Golf Course grounds offer off-street parking, which gives the truck a place to load without using the street.

Apartment And Condo Buildings

About 63 percent of Bensenville rentals are one-bedroom units, and the village’s apartment buildings average roughly 48 years old and 5 stories tall, with none built since 2000. Many moves here involve an older elevator or stairs to an upper floor, so ask your building manager about elevator reservations and the loading area before you book a date. Buildings near downtown and the Metra station, and along West Irving Park Road, sit close to busy streets, so confirm where the truck can stop before move day.

Questions People Ask Bensenville Movers

Can A Moving Truck Park Overnight On A Bensenville Street?

Not between 2 AM and 6 AM without permission from the village. Requests go through the Bensenville Police Department’s online overnight parking portal, and permission is only granted on streets where signs do not prohibit parking. Submit the request before 2 AM, because tickets written before the request are still enforced.

Does Residential Permit Parking Stop The Truck From Parking At My Home?

Generally no, because the village code exempts service and delivery vehicles while they serve a home inside a permit zone. The permit rules still apply to your own cars, so plan where those will go on move day.

Can The Moving Truck Use The Metra Commuter Lot?

No. The village code bars commercial vehicles from commuter lots and from any parking lot the village owns or controls. Plan to load from the street, a driveway, or a private lot instead.

Where Does A Bensenville Move Start?

It starts at our location at 1159 N Ellis Street in Bensenville. Having the office in the village keeps the drive to your first address short, which matters when the job starts early in the morning.
