About Us

Trusted Movers in Chicago, IL Since 1888

For over 137 years, the Hollander family has operated as one of the most established moving companies in Chicago. We are a fifth-generation family business and a premier United Van Lines agent with two locations serving the metro area: our operations base in Elk Grove Village at 1801 Pratt Boulevard and our Chicago presence at 2418 N Milwaukee Avenue in Logan Square. From those two points, our Chicago movers cover the full city and surrounding suburbs, from the high-rises of the Loop and Streeterville to the two-flats of Lincoln Park, Lakeview, Wicker Park, and the single-family neighborhoods across the North, West, and South sides.
Chicago moves come with logistics that out-of-market companies do not plan for. Our crews know how to reserve and work freight elevators in downtown towers, secure street parking permits for narrow residential blocks, protect hardwood floors and shared hallways in vintage walk-ups, and plan routes around winter weather, construction closures, and summer festival street shutdowns. That operational knowledge is built into every estimate we write, which means fewer surprises and fewer delays on moving day.

SINCE 1888 HOLLANDER STORAGE & MOVING

Licensed and Insured Chicago Moving Company

Finding movers in Chicago you can trust is harder than it should be. Between unlicensed operators, hidden fees, and companies that disappear when something goes wrong, most people just want a mover that shows up on time, handles their belongings with care, and charges what it quoted. That is the standard Hollander has held for five generations, and our 429 Google reviews at a 4.8-star average reflect it.

We are a licensed and insured Illinois household goods mover, regulated by the Illinois Commerce Commission (ILL CC 8668-MC-C), with U.S. DOT No. 077949 and MC 8668. We are also a ProMover member of the American Trucking Associations’ Moving and Storage Conference. Our crews are background-checked, trained employees on our payroll, not day labor or subcontractors. Every move is backed by Full Value Protection options so your belongings are covered from pickup to delivery.

Whether you are relocating within Chicago, moving to the suburbs, or heading out of state, our team builds a plan around your timeline, your building’s rules, and your budget. Request a free quote online or call 847-750-4121 to speak with a Chicago move coordinator.
