The Cost of Moving Services in Lakewood, IL

Beyond factors like home size, heavy items, and stairs, the biggest cost difference comes down to your moving service type.

They were a little late because their first job of the day took longer. They finished the job in 45 minutes. They were respectful of my property, took care of home and helped with minor assembly. I would hire them again.

Both young men worked very hard and did an outstanding job. They arrived when they said they would, got to work right away, and didn’t stop until the job was done. They handled my furniture with care and placed everything in the right places. Very nice, courteous young men. I would definitely hire them again!
