Not at all. This is a completely standard requirement, and we’re fully prepared for it. Sweet Home Movers Chicago carries all the necessary insurance coverage levels. We’ll provide a comprehensive COI directly to your building’s management at no cost to you.
I only have a three-hour window for the freight elevator. Is that actually enough time?
In most cases, yes. Our crews are highly efficient and completely accustomed to working within these exact time constraints. When you call for a quote, tell us your specific building and the size of your apartment. Our move coordinators can immediately tell you whether that window is realistic and create a detailed plan to ensure we complete your move within it.
How do you handle parking for the moving truck in such a congested area?
We work closely with you to secure official city parking permits well in advance. This reserves a legal, protected spot for our moving truck exactly where we need it. We strongly recommend this for every River North move to avoid any delays, complications, or parking violations on your moving day.
