Moving services for Highwood.
Local Moves
Highwood's housing is more varied than its neighbors. Downtown Highwood has compact bungalows and ranches with original staircases and the full-basement character of mid-century builds. The Fort Sheridan development has larger historic military structures - Victorian and Colonial-style homes with period architectural details, original millwork, and staircases that require floor runners and door protection. We ask about your specific address and home type when you call so the crew arrives prepared for the right building - a downtown Highwood bungalow is a fundamentally different job than a Fort Sheridan historic residence.
Long Distance
Highwood households moving out of state tend to have varied household sizes. We issue a binding rate before loading so the total is confirmed upfront. No fuel surcharges at delivery, no end-of-trip upcharges.
Packing and Storage
We do partial packing for the things that travel badly and full-service for anyone who wants to hand the job off. Our Lincolnwood warehouse holds shipments between moves, billed on actual cubic feet.
