All My Sons Chicago moves!

Don’t worry – we didn’t go far! All My Sons has relocated our facilities just a few blocks away to 25th Avenue in Broadview from 21st Street. Our old warehouse was great, and our new warehouse is even better. Although it may be slightly smaller in size, it makes for a more efficient space. Our warehouseman and dispatch team have everything highly organized and conducive to getting storage in and out quickly as well as dispatching our trucks more efficiently to you.

Our sales team has experienced a facility upgrade as well. We have opened a sales center in Plainfield that is utilizing new technology with our computer and phone systems. This means we have the ability to access your information faster to provide quotes and answer common moving questions and concerns. This new hub is a contemporary office with a tranquil atmosphere that allows our estimators and representatives the best opportunity to serve you.

We are very excited with our transition into our new facilities. We think that you will notice the difference too! All My Sons has always been a premier Chicagoland moving company since we opened in 1997, and with our updated facilities and technology, we will be truly living up to our standard and motto of “modern moving with old fashioned care.” All My Sons knows we have satisfied many thousands of customers over the years – wait until you see us now! If you’re one of the few left who have not moved with All My Sons of Chicago, call us today to experience the difference that professional, experienced, and modern movers can provide you.

All My Sons Storage versus self-storage

All My Sons Moving and Storage of Chicago has a safe, secure storage facility on site. We differ from self-storage in that our storage facility is not open for public access. Our storage is a big warehouse that is climate controlled. When you are looking to store your goods, we come to your house with an All My Sons truck and paper pad wrap and protect all of your goods. We also take a descriptive inventory of all your goods that are coming back into our storage. When we bring your things back to All My Sons, we put them in a five foot by five foot by ten foot crate, and labeled with your name and an identification number. The crate is sealed and carefully placed in our warehouse.
When you need your goods back, we set up a day to deliver them to you. We can store things as short as one day to as long as you may need it to be stored. We have customers that have been here in our storage over a period of years and use us for all their storage needs. Our storage eliminates public access near your goods. Professional movers store your goods into the crates, maximizing space efficiency and cutting down on the risk of damages.

Getting to know your moving needs

When you call All My Sons Moving and Storage of Chicago, you will be greeted by one of our friendly customer service representatives. We know that you will have a lot of questions regarding your move, especially if you are a first time mover. Interestingly, we will have a lot of questions for you too! To be able to effectively quote you and answer all your questions, we will need to know all about what you are moving. Some of the most common questions we ask are:
-What type of residence are you moving? (a house, an apartment, a townhouse)
-How many rooms are you moving?
-Are your rooms well furnished or lightly furnished?
-Are there any elevators we will be using or a long walk to where we would park the truck?
-Do you have any items such as a fish tank, grandfather clock, big screen television, a piano, or a pool table that will need special attention?
-What is the heaviest item you are moving?
-Do you need any assistance packing your goods?
-What are your concerns that I can address?
These questions will lead us to make a recommendation on how many men to send to you. Moving a one bedroom apartment has different variables than moving a five bedroom mansion. There can even be variables that are different when we move in the city and in the suburbs (such as parking restrictions). The more we know you and the type of move you are doing, the better we can accommodate you!
If you have a large home that is 3 bedrooms or more, we recommend having one of our estimators coming out to you at no charge to give you a written estimate. We recommend this because it is easier to pinpoint an estimate for you and we can get a better idea of how many men to send. A picture can be worth a thousand words in this situation, and it is at no cost to you, so there is no risk involved. We can even provide an on-site estimate if you are moving a little amount of goods. Often times if a budget is tight or you have never moved before, it can be a reassurance to have an estimate in writing based on what our professional estimators see that you are moving.

All My Sons of Chicago saves you money on your move

All My Sons Moving and Storage of Chicago loves to save you money on your move! How do we do this? Easily! We are a premier local and long distance moving company in the Chicago area. There are many local moving companies to choose from that will tempt you with a low rate; however, these companies are often not licensed nor are they insured. This means they are operating illegally, and often are using people that do not work for them full time and have probably never moved furniture before. This often leads to damage to your goods, and they will have no mover’s insurance to cover the damages.
All My Sons Moving and Storage of Chicago is a premier, licensed and insured local and long distance moving company in Chicago. We employ full time, professional movers that have years of experience and take care of your goods just as they would with their own goods. As our company name suggests, we even have some father and son moving teams! This is what we mean when we say “let our family move yours!”
Our employees take the time and care to pad wrap and protect your furniture while we are transporting your goods, whether it be local moving or long distance moving. This protects the furniture while it is in transition and keeps it just as it was when it was at your place of origin.
For a local move, All My Sons charges by the hour. We bill in quarterly hours and won’t charge you for an entire extra hour should we go 15 minutes into an hour. For example, if your local move takes 3 hours and 15 minutes, we will only charge you for 3 hours and 15 minutes and do not round up to 4 hours, saving you money! For a long distance move, the charge is determined by the weight of the shipment and how far it is going.

We understand the quality and service you expect from a local and long distance moving company, and we work to exceed your expectations.

Being in a bear economy, we understand that many of our customers are concerned about the cost of a move. We have competitive rates that are reasonable and fair for superior service over the competition. There are a lot of local moving companies in the Chicago area that will try and sell you at a very low rate - you should beware of companies like these! The low price is often a bait and switch tactic. They will either take an unusually long time to finish your move or employ nonprofessional movers who will likely cause damage to your goods since they will not know how to properly protect and pack your goods. Both of these things will cost you more money in the end. We are efficient movers who take care of you and your belongings. This is one of the reasons All My Sons has remained a successful local moving company, even in a dismal economy. This is how we save you money!

Use All My Sons for a safe, secure move

Thinking of moving yourself? Here’s how All My Sons makes your move safer than a self move!

When we do the heavy lifting, you have no risk of injury. Our professional local movers are trained professionals and they are covered by workman’s compensation insurance in case of injury. There is no risk on your part.

Our vehicles are safely equipped with moving pads and logistic straps, so your furniture is safe and secure when it is on its journey to your new destination. With a self move, you are not always guaranteed that equipment when renting a truck or using your friends SUV. Our moving vans are specially made for this type of work, so rest assured they are maintained in accordance with regulatory standards for key optimum performance and safety.

When you add up the costs of doing the move yourself, (rental truck, fuel, equipment, toll money, YOUR TIME, phone bills tracking down your friends on move day), you can be sure that your money might be spent more safely on letting the professionals at All My Sons Moving and Storage of Chicago handle your local move or even a long distance move!

Let us do the lifting and you eat the pizza yourself!
