Cost Factors to Verify
Berwyn’s tight residential streets and permit zones can push a truck farther from the door, adding labor time. Check with the city ahead of the move about temporary parking or sign placement for the truck.
Many local jobs add a travel fee, often equal to one hour of labor or calculated by mileage. Ask how that charge is applied before comparing quotes.
Standard liability is minimal. Under the basic formula, a 30-pound damaged item would settle at $18, so higher-value pieces may need full value protection or a check of your homeowner’s or renter’s policy.
Tell the crew about second- or third-floor access, narrow stairwells, or long gangways. Surprises here can lead to added stair fees or slower work.
Tipping is customary: about $4 to $5 per mover per hour, or roughly 15% to 20% of the total bill split among the crew.

How this works: IRS SOI County-to-County Migration Data, 2022-2023. The IRS compares the address on consecutive tax returns, so every move here is a real filed household. The catch: it publishes annually with about a two-year lag, counts Cook County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 8% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
