Lincoln Park access rules
Parking is permit-zoned on many residential streets and busy strips such as Clark Street and Lincoln Avenue. If the truck cannot park at the curb, the resulting long carry can add time or fees. Check signs or arrange a Chicago moving truck parking permit where required.
Greystones and courtyard buildings often have narrow corridors and staircases. Measure large pieces and stairwell openings before the move; crews may add charges or decline items that do not fit.
Mid-rise and high-rise buildings require elevator or loading dock reservations weeks in advance. Moving windows are often tightly enforced, such as 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM only, and a missed slot can lead to fines or refusal.
Peak dates increase cost and limit availability. Avoid the first and last day of the month, weekends when possible, and the May-through-August season.
Tipping is customary at $20 to $40 per mover for a standard move, or 15% to 20% of the total bill split among the crew for a large job.

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.
