Moving to Chicago? Here’s What to Expect

Chicago offers big-city energy, rich culture, and diverse neighborhoods, but moving from Minneapolis to this urban metro brings a few key considerations:


Urban Logistics & Building Access – From elevator scheduling to downtown parking permits, Chicago moves often involve navigating high-rises, tight streets, and loading dock restrictions. We’re experienced with Chicago’s residential building logistics and work ahead of schedule to ensure a smooth delivery process.


Popular Moving Destinations – We’ve helped customers relocate to popular neighborhoods including Lincoln Park, Wicker Park, The Loop, Lakeview, and Logan Square, as well as nearby areas like Evanston, Oak Park, and Naperville. Whether you're heading into the heart of the city or the suburbs, we’re equipped to handle it all.


Best Time to Move – Chicago weather can be unpredictable, so spring and fall tend to offer the most favorable conditions. We move year-round, and we’re prepared for both the snow and the summer heat.

Minne Movers ensures your move to Chicago is handled with care, efficiency, and professionalism, so you can settle into your new Windy City home with ease.

“Top Notch Experience”

The whole experience from first contact to when they drove away after a long day was top notch.The quoting process was simple and straight forward. They did need to come to our house in order to give an accurate quote, but the quote ended up being very accurate.
