Golan’s Moving and Storage was founded in 1990. At the time, we had one truck, four movers and a good friend running the office. We understood how stressful moving can be, so we focused on making moving easy for our customers.
Residential
Moving an apartment or a 4-bedroom home– it makes little difference to the training & expertise of our Chicago movers.
Commercial
Golan’s Moving has the wide range of moving resources that you require to ensure an office relocation with minimal disruption.
Storage
Our Chicago storage facilities are clean, fire-proof, and climate-controlled – to ensure the safety of your property at the best rates.
Piano Movers
Transporting an entire piano from one location to the other is nothing to rush or underestimate. It takes time, the proper manpower, not to mention professional moving equipment. And with Golan’s Moving & Storage, that is not something the residents of Chicago need to stress about. With our piano movers Chicago by your side, your instrument will be in the most capable hands possible.
Items of extraordinary value such as jewelry, money, antiques, and stamp collections
can be included in your shipment, provided that you notify your local moving representative
of these items before packing and moving day. It is strongly recommended that you carry
irreplaceable and expensive articles with you, or make alternate arrangements for their
transport.
In the moving industry, items worth more than $100 per pound are considered to be articles
of "extraordinary value.” To be assured that a claim involving these articles is not limited
to minimal liability, complete and sign your mover's high-value inventory form.
Also, be sure to sign the "Extraordinary Value Article Declaration" box, if applicable, on
your Bill of Lading.
Each mover has a slightly different procedure to follow as it relates to high-value items.
Ask your relocation specialist to provide you with an explanation of their company's process.
This is a confusing (but important) task, so be sure that you clearly understand the rules
prior to load day.
Appliances such as washers, dryers, and refrigerators must be disconnected, and the washer
must have a stabilizer installed. Again, your estimator can help you understand how these
items are properly serviced. All local moving companies have business relationships with
local service providers that handle this type of service, however full service moving
companies and national moving companies will also be able to provide all of the moving
services you require. Be sure you know who your mover will be using, as you will need to let
these people into your home to provide the service.
