Planning a Move in Back of the Yards?
A move a few blocks away can still take careful planning.
Back of the Yards has plenty of older two-flats, walk-ups, small multifamily buildings, homes, and apartments. Stairs, rear entrances, large furniture, and the distance between the door and truck can matter just as much as how far you’re moving.
The setup also changes depending on where you are in the neighborhood. Loading near the busier 47th and Ashland area is different from carrying furniture out of a residential building closer to Davis Square or farther west toward Western Avenue.
Before moving day, tell us about the property itself. Floor level, stairs, elevator access, parking, large furniture, and the entrance the crew will use all help us understand the job before we arrive.
If something looks difficult to move, send a photo. A picture of a sectional, bed frame, dresser, stairway, or entrance can answer questions quickly.
Moving Services Available in Back of the Yards
Some customers need a full move with a crew and truck. Others need packing help, a few pieces of furniture moved, or labor to load a rental truck.
Tetris Movers 23 LLC provides the following moving services in Back of the Yards.
Local Moving
Our local moving in Chicago service covers moves within Back of the Yards and moves from the neighborhood to other parts of Chicago.
Local moves can include apartments, houses, small offices, and smaller jobs involving only a few large items.
Even when the new address is nearby, tell us about access at both properties. A short move from one walk-up to another still involves stairs, furniture handling, loading, transportation, and unloading.
Apartment Moving
Apartment moves are common throughout this part of the city, especially in two-flats, three-flats, walk-ups, and smaller multifamily buildings.
Our apartment movers in Chicago handle apartment move-ins and move-outs involving stairs, elevators, upper floors, garden-level units, and large furniture.
If you’re moving from a second- or third-floor walk-up, tell us how many flights of stairs are involved.
Also mention furniture that may be difficult to carry in one piece. Beds, tables, sectionals, and other large items can be disassembled and reassembled when the move requires it.
Residential Moving
Our residential movers in Chicago help individuals, couples, and families move from houses, apartments, two-flats, and other residential properties.
A household move usually involves more than furniture. There may be boxes in several rooms, kitchen items, electronics, beds, dressers, and belongings stored in basements or other parts of the property.
Give us an accurate idea of what is moving and where everything is located.
If some items are upstairs, downstairs, or farther from the main entrance, include that information when you request your estimate.
Office and Commercial Moving
Back of the Yards also has shops, offices, and commercial properties, especially around 47th Street, Ashland Avenue, and the Stockyards area.
Our office movers in Chicago help businesses move desks, chairs, shelving, boxed files, and other workplace items.
Tell us what needs to be moved, where the crew can load, and whether desks or other furniture need to come apart first.
For businesses, timing matters. Having the furniture and access details ready before moving day helps keep the work organized and limits unnecessary delays.
Packing Help
Still have rooms or loose items to pack?
Our packing services in Chicago are available for apartment, home, and office moves.
You can request help with the whole move or only the areas that still need attention. Packing help can include boxes, household belongings, furniture preparation, and fragile items that need more careful handling.
Tell us what is already packed and what still needs work so we can plan the right amount of help.
Loading and Unloading
Already rented a U-Haul, rental truck, POD, or moving container?
Our loading and unloading services in Chicago are available when you need labor without a full moving setup.
The crew can carry items from the property, load the truck or container, and unload at the destination.
Tell us about stairs, heavy furniture, and how far the truck will be from the entrance. Those details affect how the loading job works.
Furniture and Small Moves
You don’t need to be moving an entire apartment or house to hire us.
Our furniture movers in Chicago handle small moves and individual items such as couches, sectionals, beds, dressers, tables, and other large household pieces.
Furniture can be disassembled and reassembled when needed.
This is useful in older buildings where a piece fits comfortably inside the apartment but won’t clear a doorway or stair turn in one piece.
Single-item moves are available too.
Moving From a Walk-Up or Two-Flat?
The building itself can be one of the biggest factors in a move.
Back of the Yards has a large number of older two- to four-unit properties, so stairs and building access deserve attention before moving day.
Tell Us About the Stairs
Let us know:
- Which floor you’re on
- How many flights are involved
- Whether stairs are narrow or have tight turns
- Whether an elevator is available
- Which large items need to come down or go up
Knowing this before the move helps the crew plan how larger pieces will be handled.
Point Out Large Furniture Early
Don’t wait until moving day to mention a large sectional, bed frame, dresser, or table.
If you’re unsure whether something will clear the stairs or doorway, send us a photo or measurements.
When furniture needs to come apart, our crew can handle disassembly and reassembly as part of the move.
Check the Entrance and Truck Access
Where the truck can stop matters.
Some properties have straightforward street access. Others are easier to reach through a rear entrance or alley.
Tell us which entrance the crew will use and where the truck can load.
On busier streets, especially around 47th Street and Ashland Avenue, it helps to think about the loading position before moving day rather than after the truck arrives.
Need Moving Help Today?
Same-day moving is available in Back of the Yards.
Tetris Movers 23 LLC also provides emergency and 24/7 moving help.
For an urgent move, send the important details first:
Pickup address
Destination
Floor level

Main furniture pieces
Approximate number of boxes
Time you need help
Parking or entrance information
Clear details help us understand the job quickly.
How Much Does a Move Cost?
The price depends on the work involved.
A move that’s only a few blocks away isn’t automatically a small job. Three flights of stairs, a long walk to the truck, several large furniture pieces, or packing work all affect the time and crew requirements.
What Affects the Estimate?
The main factors include:
Amount being moved
Crew size
Expected job time
Pickup and destination
Stairs
Elevator access
Distance between the entrance and truck
Parking and loading access
Heavy or oversized furniture
Furniture disassembly
Packing work
Loading and unloading requirements
We provide free estimates based on the details you give us.
What Should I Send for an Estimate?
Start with:
Your move date
Tell us when you need the move.
Pickup and destination
Provide both addresses.
Floor level
Include the floor at each property.
Stairs or elevator
Tell us what the crew will use.
Large furniture
Mention couches, beds, dressers, tables, and other heavy pieces.
Photos
Send photos when an item or access point is difficult to describe.
Parking and entrance details
Tell us if the crew will use the front entrance, rear entrance, alley, or another loading point.
You don’t need to know every detail before contacting us. Give us what you know, and we’ll use it to understand the move.
What Happens After You Request a Move?
The process starts before the truck arrives.
Tell Us What You’re Moving
Send your move date, addresses, furniture details, and approximate number of boxes.
For small moves, a short item list or a few photos can be enough to explain the job.
Confirm the Access
Tell us about floor levels, stairs, elevators, entrances, and parking.
If something changes before moving day, update us so the crew has the right information.
Get the Property Ready
Have packed items ready unless packing help is included in your move.
Keep the path to the entrance clear and separate anything that is staying behind.
If furniture needs special attention or disassembly, point it out before loading begins.
A Few Details Can Make Moving Day Easier
Most moving-day problems aren’t caused by the distance between addresses. They’re caused by details nobody discussed beforehand.
A third-floor apartment, a couch that doesn’t clear the stairs, or a truck that has to park farther from the door can all change the job.
Tell Us Those Things Early
If you need packing, loading, furniture help, or another service along with the move, include it when requesting your estimate.
It’s easier to plan the work together from the beginning.
Moving Help for Different Types of Jobs
Tetris Movers 23 LLC handles full moves, small moves, single furniture items, labor-only jobs, same-day moves, and urgent moving requests.
Moving Around Back of the Yards and 60609
Moving conditions aren’t the same on every block.
A residential move near Davis Square can involve an older two-flat or walk-up. A move closer to 47th and Ashland can involve heavier traffic and a different loading setup. Farther west toward Western Avenue, the property and parking situation changes again.
That’s why we ask about the actual building and access rather than assuming every Back of the Yards move works the same way.
Tetris Movers 23 LLC serves customers throughout the neighborhood and 60609 as part of our work as an affordable moving company in Chicago .
