With Bellhop's full-service moves, you won't worry about hassles like sharing your truck space or move-day with anyone else. Opt for a dedicated truck packed with you in mind and driven directly to your new home, whether it's move one city over, or a cross-country move.
We also offer the option to ship your household goods with a container - schedule when you'd like it to arrive, and our movers can unload it into your new home.
There's no need to get held up by a vague or wide service window range. With Bellhop, you can relax knowing your crew of Chicago long-distance movers and belongings will be at your new home exactly when you've requested them.
Bellhop was named a Best Mover of 2022 and 2023 by U.S. News & World Report, based on criteria including services offered, cost, licensing, customer satisfaction, and probability of being on time. The independent evaluation, which analyzed an initial pool of more than 30 moving businesses, ranked Bellhop at #2 overall. (And yes, we have our sights trained on that #1 spot! But for now, we're pleased to be recognized along with some of the largest and most established movers in the moving industry)
Your Bellhop Pros and truck will arrive on the day of your choosing; the truck will be loaded and driven directly to your destination, where it will be unloaded on your schedule. Unlike other long-distance movers and van lines, you don’t have to worry about sharing your move day or truck space with anyone else. You can rest assured that your belongings and fragile items will arrive safely and promptly at your new home.
Together with our partners at PODS, Bellhop Pros will load your belongings into secure storage containers to be transported to your destination, where they will be carefully unloaded on a specified date. If you require flexibility with the timing of your long-distance move, or you need an interim storage solution (PODS containers can be kept in your driveway or in PODS’ storage facilities across the country), a storage service move is a convenient and cost-effective option.
A team of Chicago Bellhop Pros will expertly load and/or unload a truck you’ve rented. While this more DIY option requires you to drive the truck to your final destination, it saves you time, energy, and unnecessary stress: our Pros leverage their years fo experience to pack your truck(s) with maximum efficiency – keeping your furniture and valuables safe in transit with no wasted truck space. And, as with our other long-distance move options, our labor only move services accommodate your schedule. If you're concerned with moving cost, this can be a great option.

This is the crew you want, and if you're lucky in Chicagoland, you'll get them for your move. Efficient, professional, experienced and it shows in every detail of the move. I thought I was ready when I had boxed, marked, and identified clearly what was gonna be moved. But this superfast crew blazed through, and while the guys with truck were delayed by traffic, the other crew members had moved all stuff to the garage and had'em ready for the truck. When bellhop had to reschedule earlier in the week I was upset, but getting this crew today was truly a godsend. Kudos to Montrell and team. From the rookie making his debut, to the most experienced member of the team, everybody was courteous, focused and delivered more than 100 percent.

Long-Distance Container Moves - If you have a flexible moving schedule, or have a gap between your move-out and your move-in date, a long-distance container move can be a great option. Our Chicago movers can get you packed out or moved in of your storage container, and our storage container partners can get you started with a container move.

Packing Services - We can also help with packing and unpacking in advance of your move date.
Distance of a Long-Distance Move - Moving trucks are large and expensive! The longer your move is, the more it costs in terms of the truck depreciation, fuel, and driver time.
Size of Your Move - Besides the time it will take to load and unload your possessions, the difference between needing one truck and two trucks is quite large, in terms of price.
Moving Obstacles - A key moving tip to consider - if movers have to climb (or descend) a couple flights of stairs, that will add to the amount of time needed to accomplish the move. Our movers are ready for the challenge! But it will take longer, and that may affect the long distance moving cost.
When will the move be? - Demand for movers is almost always higher on weekends and in the summer. If you're able to be a bit flexible with your move date, you might be able to save some money. It also pays to book as far in advance as you can (and brings you some peace of mind). Get a free quote today!
