Route Notes
Chicago (~2,065 miles, I-80 nearly door to door) is the biggest-city delivery in the Midwest, and it behaves like one: downtown and lakefront buildings require certificates of insurance and freight-elevator reservations, some limit move-ins to weekday windows, and street parking for a 26-foot truck in Lincoln Park or Wicker Park is a planned event rather than a hope. We arrange COIs and elevator slots with your building before the truck leaves California — that paperwork is the difference between a two-hour delivery and a rescheduled one.
Beyond the city, Springfield (~1,900) and Peoria (~1,960) are simple heartland deliveries on the same corridor. Winter brings lake-effect snow and hard wind off the plains; transit stays 4–6 days with the standard cold-season buffer. The route runs both directions constantly — Chicago-to-San-Diego is one of the busier return legs we quote.

The Part Nobody Tells You
Most companies quoting long-distance moves online are brokers — middlemen who take a deposit, then sell your move to the cheapest carrier they can find. That's how prices double at pickup and belongings get held hostage. When Discount Movers quotes your move, the company quoting you is the company that loads, drives, and delivers.
Every Illinois Move Includes
Before You Book
Just your building manager’s contact. We handle the certificate of insurance and the freight-elevator reservation before arrival — it’s standard on Chicago deliveries.
In dense neighborhoods we plan the truck position in advance — loading zones, alley access, or a legally arranged space. A planned spot by the door beats a 300-foot carry.
Much — Naperville, Schaumburg, and the collar suburbs are driveway-and-garage deliveries. The flat-rate process is identical either way.
Typically 4–6 days at ~2,065 miles, almost entirely on I-80. Winter adds a weather buffer, not drama.
Locked in writing before we load a single box. No brokers, no surprises.
