Fine Print Worth Knowing
- Most local companies enforce a two-hour minimum, even for a quick studio load.
- For moves within Illinois, intrastate carriers must hold an Illinois Commerce Commission (ICC) license.
- Travel fees, often equal to one hour of labor, cover the crew's trip from the warehouse to Morton Grove and back.
- Stairs, long carries, and condo elevators can trigger surcharges or slow the pace on an hourly job.
- Basic liability sits at $0.60 per pound per item. A broken 30-pound television valued at $1,000 would yield just $18 without upgraded coverage.
- Tipping runs $4–$5 per mover per hour, or 15%–20% of the local bill.

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.
