How this route runs

Four driving days via I-15 and I-80. Cross-country runs rotate two drivers on the longest legs so the truck keeps a predictable schedule, and you get the driver's number for live updates the whole way.

Delivery in Chicago

Chicago unloading is big-city logistics at the other end: alley access, permit parking, walk-up three-flats and downtown dock reservations. We arrange City of Chicago moving permits where streets require them and book building docks before the truck leaves LA.

Why a dedicated truck beats a van line

National van lines consolidate your shipment with strangers' freight through terminals — that's why their windows stretch to 21 days and items go missing. Your Best Movers LA shipment loads once at your LA door and unloads once at your Chicago door, with the driver's phone number in your pocket the whole way.
