THE GRANDMA RULE® AND SENIOR MOVING
We understand that downsizing and moving a loved one into a senior living facility can bring about feelings of stress and uncertainty.

TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® Chicago are experts when it comes to moving college students into their dorms. We have experience moving in and out of colleges and universities, including: Loyola, DePaul, Northwestern, and many more. We understand that college is a new and exciting time, and worrying about moving should be the last thing on a college student's mind. We love helping students settle into this new time in their life by organizing everything just the way they want it.
Specialty boxes and supplies
With moving comes the need for moving supplies, and TWO MEN A TRUCK® can provide it all. We sell a wide variety of boxes and moving supplies, so you are prepared. With four different box sizes, along with specialty boxes, you will be set for your upcoming move. Make sure you don't forget the tape, packing paper, markers, paper pads, bubble wrap, and stretch wrap to make sure your items are safe! Don't know how many boxes you'll need? Use our guide below for a better understanding.
Our wardrobe boxes have a convenient bar located in the middle of the box where you can hang up to three feet of closet space. The best part is, the clothes do not even have to come off the hangers- they can go from your closet, to the wardrobe box, to your new closet. This saves you the hassle of having to take all of your clothes off the hangers, pack them in a suitcase, then hang them all back up on the hangers.
Dishpack boxes are great for packing up the kitchen because they offer a unique set of dividers that can be used to separate dishes such as glasses, mugs, plates, etc. Another advantage of using the dividers is you can add or take out different levels of the dividers to accommodate items of different sizes.
Mirror or picture boxes are great for transporting flat items such as mirrors, framed pictures, or paintings. We recommend wrapping items in bubble wrap before being placed in the mirror or picture boxes. Bubble wrap also happens to be one of the packing supplies that we sell, in addition to paper, tape, and even permanent markers.
BUSINESS MOVING SERVICES
Moving a business can be tricky for many reasons, and it often requires that the company be closed in the process. Here at TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® Chicago, we can help move your business, a single office, or an entire building with our convenient evening and weekend moves. Let us help you relocate and get back to work in no time!
DELIVERY AND ASSEMBLY
We are proud to offer white-glove delivery services for your big purchases. Whether it's furniture, appliances, or equipment, we will pick it up and deliver it to you. Take the hassle out of purchasing large items and let us safely deliver them to you.
