Movers in Wood Dale, IL

Wood Dale sits on the western edge of O’Hare with a residential core around Irving Park Road and 9.2 million square feet of industrial and flex space behind it. We move both sides of the town.

House and Apartment Moving

Most residential moves here are two and three bedroom homes, which run three or four movers and a truck at $185 or $225 an hour. Because our Bensenville office is roughly two miles away the travel fee covers a short run rather than a cross-county one. See our residential moving page.

Industrial and Warehouse Moving

Wood Dale has 855 privately owned businesses and a large share of them sit in industrial and flex buildings near the airport. We move racking, equipment and office contents on a schedule that keeps the operation running, and we crate what needs crating. Our commercial moving page covers the process.

Packing and Storage

Packing is booked by the hour on the same rate card, for a whole house or just the kitchen. Where a closing date slips we hold the load in our warehouse and redeliver. See packing services and storage.

Specialty Items

Pianos, safes and hot tubs are priced separately from the hourly move because they need different equipment and more movers. See piano moving and hot tub moving.

We charge $135 an hour for two movers and a truck on weekdays in Wood Dale, and $185 an hour for three movers. A travel fee is added once per job, based on how many movers you book.

Hourly Rates and Travel Fees

Weekend and peak-season dates cost a little more per hour.

Estimated Cost by Home Size

These are planning estimates at weekday rates, not a quote. They cover mover and truck time only, before the travel fee and any add-ons.

What Moves the Total

How much you own and where the truck parks matter most. Stairs are $75 per flight, which applies to the split-level and two-story homes common here. Carries longer than 75 feet add $75 for each extra 50 feet, and an appliance disconnect and reconnect is $250 per appliance.

Irving Park Road and the Business District

Irving Park Road is the central business district and the main east-west route through town, and it carries steady traffic through the working day. We stage the truck on the side street rather than the main road where the address allows it, which keeps the carry short and the lane clear. Tell us if your building only loads from the front.

The Metra Line and the Station Area

The Metra Milwaukee District West line runs through town and the station sits just off the Irving Park Road business district. On a move that needs more than one trip we plan the return legs around the line rather than guess at it. It is a small thing that keeps a long day on schedule.

Working Next to O’Hare

The town sits on the western edge of O’Hare and is about ten minutes from four interstates, so approach times are short but the industrial corridors are busiest at shift changes. For business moves we book outside those windows. For household moves an early start is usually enough.

We hold U.S. DOT No. 872553 and IL MC1035. These allow us to move households and businesses in Wood Dale and across Illinois. Our nearest office is in Bensenville at 1159 N Ellis St, about two miles from the Wood Dale business district. We also serve Bensenville, Itasca, Addison and Elk Grove Village.
