Smooth moving experience! Initial contact: There's an easy to use online portal where you can input your inventory and details, sign your contract, etc. The team is also very communicative via text. All the communication is rapid, clear, and convenient. Price: on par with other professional moving companies in the area. Move experience: Seamless. The movers called to say they'd be a few minutes late because of truck issues, but they more than made up for that time by working quickly. They sent 5-6 people to help with our huge move (finally, a company that understands how to staff large moves!), were prepared to handle some very heavy and oddly shaped items, and were extremely proactive and patient with helping me figure out where to put some furniture in smaller spaces in my new house. Vibes: The movers treated our items with care, treated our home with respect, and were still incredibly fast with making the move. I mainly communicated with the manager of the crew, who knew his stuff, was professional, and was patient with my questions and concerns. Overall: great experience (as great as the misery of moving can be, and I've already hired them for a second time for another move! read more

The move was perfect. My TV, monitors, couch and bed frames are well protected. Everything is smooth. Easy to communicate. A little pricy but I guess it's worth it. read more

Expert Movers - Movers Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Brayan and Guillermo were the best. I am so glad that we hired this company to help us move from Massachusetts to Illinois, and they were professional, courteous, respectful, and very careful. They did a great job, and I would 100% hire them again. If I have one complaint, it is about the company; they promised that there would be four movers, but only two showed up. Thankfully, Brayan and Guillermo completed a job that should have taken four people with just two people, and we are very happy with the results. This was not the cheapest of the four companies we evaluated, but their reputation was the best and they delivered exactly what was promised. I'm looking forward to calling them if we ever have to move again. Thank you for the great work! read more

Brian and his crew were outstanding. Very efficient and wasted no time during the move. The team was extremely professional, careful and courteous. I would 100% hire them for all future moves. read more

I appreciated the straightforward process. I was able to book easily on short notice just after the new year. The movers were prompt, hard working and professional. I highly recommend Expert Movers for your next move. read more

Expert Movers was recommended by a friend, and I am so glad. They were great with communication, very clear on cost, and delivered on service. They were on time, quick, professional, and cost effective. I will definitely recommend to anyone looking to move in Chicago. read more

Eric, Jose and Carlos. Did a phenomenal job they were professional they handle my items with care and I will recommend them going forward I was really impressed. They made my move smooth sailing. Thank you again. read more

The guys were super nice and accommodating. I had a two stop move (dropping off then picking up)- they followed all directions perfectly. I would use them again! read more

The crew did a fantastic job, going above and beyond the entire move, these guys showed extreme skill in unloading, moving things, handling huge heavy things, and then packing up my storage unit for me. These three guys did the work of four or five people and got it done quickly and I was beyond impressed and appreciative. Completely worth the price, no headaches, great customer service. Super hard-working guys. And a nice big truck. read more

The moving crew I had were great. They showed up on time, took apart my furniture, packed it up, and unloaded and unpacked everything in my new house the way I wanted. I had new floors and paint done on the new house and they didn't even leave a single dent on my walls. So appreciate this crew and would use their services again. read more

The movers were excellent! They worked quickly and efficiently, handled everything with care, and didn't damage a single item. I really appreciated how they asked where to place things instead of just guessing--made the whole move so much easier. Highly recommend! read more

Manuel & Fidel showed up on time and ready for the challenge. Whenever I schedule moves it's always complicated due to building rules. They made it easy. I had to keep rescheduling bc the freight company & driver couldn't communicate with me. Every time I made an update to the date/time they were kind and prompt to reschedule. They were also able to accommodate a last minute removal request & help assemble a super confusing set. They moved heavy delicate items without breaking anything. I would hire them again. read more

No bueno. The crew arrived about an hour late, but honestly that's NBD to me. They worked at a decent pace, about like most movers I've hired. But it's irritating to pay $160.00 for a second truck, which was NOT used to move anything. Except to transport two of the movers. Worst: When it was done and I was signing and initializing the contract where needed, the foreman asked, "Do you want to leave a tip with cash or credit?" What?? Yes, I was planning to tip them, as I nearly always do for any service providers. But I've never been asked that question by movers, or any service provider for that matter, BEFORE the subject of tipping was brought up at all. "Would you care to leave a tip?" would have been ok, though I've never been asked that by movers before, either. Bad move. A pressure tactic I didn't appreciate. I said "cash," and when everything was done, I tipped about half of what I was originally planning. Me: "This is for you and your crew." Foreman: "Thank you. Is this just for me?" Me: "no." Foreman: Turns to his crew, shouting something about "pesos" and waving the cash. Crew laughs derisively. The only thing I regret doing is leaving a tip at all. read more

I had used Expert Movers multiple times in the past and had even referred them to others. However, this last time I used them, I was highly disappointed. I moved last year, and the amount was a little over $800. This year, I literally moved back to the old location and this time, it was $1,600.00. Granted, I did have a lot more items, but this time I was charged extra fees for each television as well as charged a $180 travel fee (mind you, I moved 7 blocks away). I can't understand how within a year, the same move cost me double and I do not understand how I was charged $180 for 7 blocks. After being so pleased with them in the past, I'm actually conflicted because I'm so irritated at being charged double. The workers, although moved very slow this time, did in fact work very hard which is why my husband and I still tipped them. But I will no longer praise them to others, nor will I use them again. Sincerely, S. Lacy read more

Jesus and crew were excellent. They worked efficiently and carefully and handled a pretty giant move very professionally. They identified a problem with our used dining room table that we were unaware of (missing bolts w/a cheap fix someone did before we bought it) and helped us identify the right bolt size and we got it fixed up better than ever. Would absolutely recommend Expert! read more

Great service. I would use them again. Friendly folks who took good care of my stuff.

It's really hard finding a mover you like, trust, and is reasonably priced, but Expert Movers is definitely one of them. We had a same day, short distance move for a family of 4 and Expert Movers checked off all the boxes to make the move a breeze: -Able to schedule on short notice? Yes! -Reasonable estimate based on information given to them? Yes! -Friendly, helpful, CAREFUL movers? Yes! -Finished within allocated time? Yes! -Hidden Fees? No! -Final price equal to estimate? Yes! What more can I say besides I'd use them again? read more

awesome service and reasonable prices. Their guys Jose and Fidel were very professional, able to work efficiently and navigate a large sleeper in a very tight space. Thank you! read more

First time hiring movers and am so, so thankful I found Expert Movers. Communication from start to finish was second to none. I love that they send a free quote via an account page where you can update your inventory list, add pictures, all from the same landing page making it easier for you to communicate with their team. Movers were kind, respectful, FAST. On time. Accommodating. Honestly great. Finished in 2 hours. I would highly recommend this company to others interested. Pay in cash if you can to avoid standard transaction fees if you pay with a CC. No personal checks are accepted. read more

Overall nice people to work with. The downside is that they broke my mirror & turned it around so I wouldn't see it right away. I called the company & I didn't get reimbursed & the company stated that the movers didn't even recall moving a mirror. They also stated that since the mirror wasn't included in the inventory sheet that they provided so they weren't able to reimburse me. I take full accountability for not including my mirror on the inventory document, I just included the major large items. If you choose to move with them, I would make sure you include every single item on the inventory sheet they provide, even the smallest things so you won't end up in my situation. Hope this helps! read more

We recently moved out of three separate locations en route to our new house. Luis and his team were AWESOME through everything - arrived early to the first location, very carefully handled our belongings, and managed the move efficiently. We didn't feel like they were upcharging us, and they had a reasonable fee, especially with all the coordination required for our move. I am surprised by the negative reviews as we had a great experience with them (this was our second time moving with this team). I would highly recommend them for your upcoming move! You won't be disappointed! read more

I had a great experience using Expert Movers for my move out of a 2nd floor condo into a home. The crew that I was sent was punctual, polite, explained everything well, and very efficient moving all my belongings. They handled all of my possessions with care and did it in the rain with no complaints. They were extremely fast moving my already packed boxes, I couldn't believe how quick they cleared everything out of the condo. They disassembled furniture and packed my TV with care. 10/10 would absolutely use them again if I had to move again. read more

They are good movers. Very efficient and diligent. However, beware before you sign the contract: 1. They charge 3% for credit card use, so make sure you arrange for cash. 2. They have a minimum of 2.5 hours time regardless of how long it actually takes for the move. If it takes an hour, you are out of luck, you still need to pay for the 2.5 hours. read more

Perfect. Best move I've ever had. Right on time. Helpful, pleasant, organized, clean. Didn't run up a bunch of fake charges for packing materials like movers I've used in the past. So fast that it actually cost less than what I budgeted for. Nothing lost, nothing broken, not even any dirt spilled in my plants. Also, the people in the office were responsive and helpful answering questions by email in a matter of minutes. I cannot reccomend this company strongly enough. Editing this to add that they put my bed back together about a million times better than it was before. Was a bit wobbly and now it's solid as a rock. Thanks! read more

These folks are truly experts movers. Before the move they answered my questions promptly. During the move they were clearly prepared and hustled, but it was very clear that they are experienced professionals - somehow craftsmen of moving. Luis and crew did just great, including interfacing with the building staff at the origin and destination. The move was completed promptly and my property was handled with care Well done, and thank you so much! read more

I used Expert Movers on 2/7/2024 to move from unincorporated Willowbrook to the West Loop of Chicago. I am grateful to find these outstanding movers at a good price. They went above and beyond in moving my items by packing the last few I ran out of energy to pack. They moved me on short notice in the evening. I look forward to using them again. read more

Moving is one of those experiences where the company you choose can really make or break your sanity. Expert Movers is extremely responsive, had the best rates out of what I scoped around the area, and very flexible throughout the entire process. I had the lucky opportunity to move during the pandemic and was grateful to hear that they allow one rescheduling for free before charging any fees. The day of, the movers showed up early. So early in fact that we weren't ready for them yet, and they were happy to wait until we were ready and didn't start the time until we signed the initial paperwork. The three guys were quick and also courteous, and made things super hassle-free for us. I highly recommend this company for any moves and I would absolutely do business with them again in the future. read more

Who likes moving? Let's see a show of hands. Yeah, that's what I thought: nobody. Nobody likes moving. BUT... if you have to cram your world into a bunch of cardboard boxes and transport everything to a new home... have I got a company for you! Expert Movers lives up to their name: they really are experts. How refreshing is that, my friend? Expert Movers was the only one of the 6 companies I contacted that bothered to make an in-person visit (by the owner, Eduardo, no less) to evaluate how much stuff I was moving. Very impressive. Then he submitted a very reasonable bid, which included an extra stop to load up my partner's belongings. Of course I said, yes. On moving day, the truck actually arrived 10 minutes early with 4 energetic and experienced guys who made quick work of all the boxes and furniture at both locations. The final stop - our new home - offered some obstacles, such as trapping 2 crew members in an elevator for 20 minutes. Little things like that. But these experts kept hustling, kept sweating, kept doing their job. Bottom line: the guys (led by the amazing Celso) were outstanding and worked their butts off. They really ought to change the name of the company to Super-Dooper-Experts-Who-Really-Truly-Are-Experts-And-I'm-Not-Kidding-Expert Movers. Now, that would be some truth in advertising! read more

Omar and his crew did an phenomenal job. They worked quickly and neatly. Their customer service was excellent. They did the job in about half time time I expected. They were extremely respectful. They were willing to do anything, even things we forgot to include in the estimate. The estimate process was easy and kind of fun. It was thorough and intuitive. Just for fun, I packed a carton of eggs in a closed cloth bag to see how many would break in the move. ...zero eggs broke. These guys are amazing. read more

Expert movers absolutely crushed my move. They quoted me 8 hours for a 2 bedroom move, but got it all done in 2 hours total. That includes a 25 minute drive between houses. They were very careful with our stuff, even placing things that logically should go together like an office chair and a desk next to each other. They didn't charge us any weird charges the invoice was clear and easy to follow. Everything made sense. I'd use Expert Movers again in a second. read more

Expert Movers provided outstanding service. First of all thank you so much to the movers: Heribierto, Albierto and Dany. The heat index for my move was over 100 degrees. I dreaded the move. Thinking about it ruined my entire week prior. They showed up early ready, willing and able. They went non-stop. The inside of one of the homes matched the outside temp. The entire move took 2.5 hours. They protected all the upholstered furniture, mattress and boxspring with shrink wrap. They moved two oak bookshelves, removed the shelving AND the pins holding them up, shrink wrapped the shelving and put everything back together. They were like three energizer bunnies. I was thoroughly impressed. I did nothing to help them. I had fragile furniture items and every single one survived the move. I'm very grateful. They were pleasant to work with and lazer-focused on completing the job. Each knew what to do. When I was in college more than three decades ago, I paid about $200 less than what I was charged for approximately the same amount of furniture. I got an outstanding deal from Expert Movers. I would definitely use them again!!! read more

Hands down, the worst moving experience I've ever had. As someone who has moved a significant number of times, I have never dealt with such an incompetent moving crew. Please, if you have a piano or furniture you value, do not hire this company. I paid an additional $175 fee to have my baby grand piano moved. I called days ahead of time to confirm that the movers would bring a piano board and be equipped to move my piano. They showed up, without a piano board, and proceeded to move my piano on a dolly, with the legs attached. Damage occurred to my piano, which Expert Movers refused to take responsibility for, since part of the piano was previously covered (even though other areas that were also damaged were not). When I pointed out the damage, the foreman asked me to fill out a personal property disclaimer, waiving them from all liability. Incredibly dishonest and sleazy. The movers did not know how to reassemble the piano and handed me "extra parts". For anyone familiar with pianos, you know they don't have "extra parts". It is alarming that this company markets itself as providing piano moving services, when they clearly cannot/shouldn't. There was minor damage done to other furniture pieces (not previously wrapped), which I was willing to overlook, but so far, I am very unsatisfied with the lack of resolution Expert Movers has provided. read more

We have used Expert Movers for two moves: a 4 bedroom house in Chicago to the suburbs, and my mom's 1 bedroom apartment move from Chicago to the suburbs. They were fast, polite, and mindful of our belongings. Our furniture was wrapped furniture very securely in plastic wrap for an additional $30 and it was worth it for peace of mind. The website was easy to use for a quote, and they were flexible when we called before the move to add more inventory. Nothing was damaged or broken and with both properties, we had a LOT of stuff. To be honest, the only thing keeping us from moving with them in the future is that we are in the suburbs now! read more

I requested quotes through Yelp a few days before we needed to move items from our apartment into our storage unit. Expert was the last to respond but had the best hourly rate and their communication was very clear and thorough. I liked that they offered to arrange a city permit for parking ($25). The three men who showed up were SO strong. I suppose this is expected, but I'm always WOWd. They helped us take apart a big wood piece and wrap it up for storage. Very fast work but high quality. I'd book again. Thank you! read more

Very efficient movers, priced very well too. They did an clean job disassembling and assembling everything back in our new house. Highly recommend them! read more

We hired Expert Movers to come move us out on June 21 at 12. We were moving from two high rises, so the timeframes were very tight. At 12:30 on the 21, Expert calls us and says they will not be here until 3:00 at the earliest! WHAT! We had to re-schedule our entire move at the drop of a hat for two days later; then, they wouldn't take off ANY discount, not even a free hour, to compensate for their mistake and the inconvenience they caused us!!!!!When they came and moved us finally on the 23, they broke our 70" in TV!! They assured us they would cover the cost of a new one. NOW they only want to give us .60 cents PER LB of the TV - meaning they pay us $33!?!?! That is literally 5% of what the TV cost. NEVER HIRE THEM IF YOU DON'T WANT A HEADACHE OR CARE TO FIGHT FOR RESPECTFUL TREATMENT OF CLIENTS. read more

Shit show. The two-man crew showed up late, without any boxes (they brought only tape for my move). I'd contracted with the company to provide packing AND moving services; I have it in writing that this is what they were providing. Nope, not a single box for my entire move. The guys showed up in a U-Haul, had no idea what tools they needed to dissemble my bed, and were completely mystified that they were there to pack AND move me. It cost me three extra hours of time (at $160/hour) to accommodate this error. I'd confirmed the pack and move with Dennis from the company the day before my move. I've reached out to him on his cell several times (on moving day and in the days since), with no response. Do not hire these people. read more

Overall it was okay, but there were things I wished they had handled more carefully. 1. They work very quickly, which isn't always a bad thing, but it can mean they handle your furniture aggressively. They were taking shelves/drawers out of our TV stand and when the drawer fell out, the guy was just trying to forcibly put it back in (even when it wasn't aligned correctly). 2. They do NOT care about your floors. If you're renting and don't want to get charged by your landlord for scratches, I HIGHLY recommend you buy things to cover your floors because they will drag your furniture against your hard floors. 3. FYI, they don't cover for basic damages (unless you purchase separate coverage). Our mover said they only cover for real solid wood items, but they will not cover anything "cheap like Ikea" (his words exactly). Although some of my items were not real solid wood, they were still more than a few hundred dollars... but apparently that doesn't matter because they're not the "real stuff". It's a shame our dining table edge was ruined with a dent during the move (image attached), but I assume nothing can be done. read more

I had a move in mid May, and expert movers was my first time hiring movers. i was happy that nearly the entire process for preparing was online, and I got a fair estimate that was less expensive than the other options. Once the move came around, they were timely, polite, quick, and the total was about exactly what the estimate was. Would definitely use them again, and likely will. read more

Excellent job! The process for booking was incredibly easy. I was nervous about finding movers because I am deployed and had a family member handling my move - this company took the stress away. They arrived on time and got straight to work - payment was also easy. The prices are very straight forward and fair! I thought my entire move would take 5-6 hours and they completed it in 3.5 hours! Incredibly efficient, especially considering that they had to disassemble two beds and drive 23 miles to the suburbs. They also took great care of my furniture, and wrapped all of my items. No damage to my unit or my items. I highly highly recommend them, and will absolutely use them again when I move out of my storage unit. Easy 10/10. read more
