Pros of Moving from Los Angeles to Chicago

✓ More Affordable Housing
Compared to Los Angeles, California housing in Chicago, Illinois is significantly more affordable. You’ll find more space for your money whether you’re renting or buying, with average home prices nearly 40% lower than in LA’s most popular neighborhoods.

✓ Central Location with Travel Perks
Chicago is a transportation hub, making it easy to travel across the U.S. for business or pleasure. With two major airports and quick access to the East Coast, Midwest, and South, you’ll save both time and money on travel compared to living on the West Coast.

✓ Distinct Four-Season Climate
Unlike LA’s near-constant sunshine, Chicago gives you the full experience of all four seasons. From colorful autumns and snowy winters to sunny springs and warm summers, the change in climate adds variety and rhythm to your lifestyle.

✓ Strong Job Market in Diverse Industries
Chicago is a major economic center with thriving sectors in finance, logistics, tech, healthcare, and education. Whether you’re a recent graduate or a seasoned executive, the city offers career growth without LA’s extreme competition and high living expenses.

✓ Cultural Depth and Local Identity
From the Art Institute of Chicago to deep-dish pizza and a rich music scene, the city delivers a vibrant cultural experience rooted in local pride. If you’re looking to live somewhere with depth, diversity, and personality, Chicago stands out.

How do I get an estimate?

Choose whichever fits your schedule for a free quote or consultation.

✓Video walkthrough. A 15-minute video call, room by room. Most popular option.
✓Call us. 866-565-1516 speak with our friendly team.

✓Free in-person estimate. Available for homes with 2+ bedrooms.

Will my furniture be protected?

Yes. At Poseidon Moving, protecting your furniture is one of our highest priorities.

Every piece is carefully prepared before it’s moved. Our crews use heavy duty moving blankets, stretch wrap, floor protection, and proven loading techniques to help prevent scratches, dents, and shifting during transport.

If you have antiques, artwork, glass, marble, or other high-value items, we can recommend additional protection options such as custom crating or White Glove service.

Are there items you can't move?

Yes. For safety reasons, we cannot transport hazardous materials or certain restricted items. These are commonly referred to as “non-allowable items.”

This includes:

•Propane tanks, gasoline, kerosene, and lighter fluid
•Paint, aerosols, household cleaners, and other hazardous chemicals
•Fireworks, ammunition, matches, and charcoal
•Living things, including plants, fish, and pets

We recommend transporting these items yourself, using them before your move, or disposing of them safely according to local regulations.

Not sure about a specific item? Just ask your Move Coordinator before moving day, and we’ll be happy to let you know if it can be transported.

Can you take down TVs and wall-mounted items?

Yes. We can remove and reinstall many wall-mounted items as part of your move.

Our crews can typically dismount and reinstall:

✓Mounted TVs
✓Artwork and mirrors
✓Shelving
✓Window air conditioners

Some installations may require additional hardware, specialized tools, or extra time, so these services may incur an additional charge.

If you know you’ll need help with wall-mounted items, let your Move Coordinator know before moving day so we can arrive fully prepared.

How much will my move cost?

Every move is unique, so the most accurate pricing starts with a personalized estimate.

✓Local Moves – Pricing depends on the size of your move, the time required, travel time, and any additional services such as packing, storage, or specialty handling. Based on your move, we’ll recommend either hourly or flat-rate pricing.
✓Long-Distance Moves – We provide binding estimates based on your inventory, the distance, logistics, and any additional services you request.

Do you provide moving supplies and equipment?

Yes. Every Poseidon Moving truck arrives fully stocked with the supplies and equipment your move may need.

✓Heavy-duty moving pads, stretch wrap, and tape
✓Dollies, hand trucks, straps, and floor protection
✓Basic tools for disassembly and reassembly

If you’re not fully packed by moving day, let us know before your move date and we’ll make sure the crew brings the packing supplies you need – boxes, dish packs, wardrobe boxes, bubble wrap, mirror boxes, and TV boxes.
