Moving and storage

Born to Move knows that when you move to a different side of the country to the West Coast, your life will change. And sometimes you sell a house in Chicago but you haven’t purchased a new one or rented an apartment yet, and that’s why you need to move in storage. Born to Move provide moving and storage for cross-country moves to Los Angeles. Born to Move charges weekly rates for any storage spaces. Give us a call if you would like to get more information regarding weekly storage rates. When you also hire us for your move from Chicago to Los Angeles, Born to Move will not charge you the shuttle fee from your apartment to the storage. It’s free of charge.

Moving process, how does it work?

It’s very important that you check reviews, especially when you’re looking for cross-country movers. A lot of cross-country movers from Chicago to Los Angeles will combine your job with other jobs going in the same direction, but Born to Move never do it. We only send a 20- or 26-foot truck just for your stuff. We will never share a truck with any other moving company. We never hire any third-party moving help. Everything and all of the operations will be performed by our employees. That’s why we have such a good rating on Google, Yelp, and Thumbtack.

What happens if my stuff gets damaged?

Moving insurance works the way that if anything is broken or damaged, the moving company is only paying $.60 per pound for any broken furniture. But Born to Move is not like all other companies who are moving stuff from Chicago to Los Angeles. We will provide replacement value for your convenience. That’s why we recognize our customers’ valuable furniture and never let them down if something goes bad. If that happens and you have a claim, please contact our claim department, and they will talk to you directly to resolve your moving claim and will give you a refund.

Moving reviews

Moving reviews is one of the best ways to find a moving company to perform various types of moves, especially cross-country. When you move from Chicago to Los Angeles, make sure to find one of the best movers who will not only move you, but take care of all of your needs, including storage, packing, and much more. You can request opinions from other customers who used the Born To Move moving company from Chicago to Los Angeles by calling other customers to learn how the move went. You can talk with customers directly and figure out if this fits your cross-country moving needs.

Packing for interstate moving

This is one of the hardest things that you can do because if you’re moving, you have to make sure everything will make it safely to the new destination. Ask the moving company of your choice who will be packing your stuff how to pack glass and other things for an interstate move. Born to Move will put books into smaller containers, also dishes and all of the silverware into smaller boxes and put them on top in the truck and mark them as fragile so movers will know not to put fragile stuff on the bottom inside the truck. Choose a safe moving company who do lots of interstate moves and not a broker. You can save a lot of hustle and money by packing and unpacking all of your boxes by yourself. Or you might as well ask the moving company of your choice to do the unpacking for you, but there will be an additional cost for packing and unpacking on top of the flat rate that you receive from any moving company from Chicago to Los Angeles.
