Golan's Moving & Storage Who said moving isn't easy? - http://www.golansmoving.com We focused on making moving easy for our customers. Our growth was organic. Who said moving isn’t easy?

When we started Golan’s Moving and Storage in 1990, we had one truck, four movers and a good friend running the office. Before we knew it, we had customers referring friends and family members to us. We started moving folks beyond Chicago and the suburbs, to lake homes in Wisconsin and Michigan, new opportunities in other cities, and, finally, internationally. We have many customers we’ve moved th

ree, four and five times, from cramped studio apartments in the city to spacious homes for their growing families. We’ve moved businesses from one-room offices through a succession of spaces to entire floors of downtown skyscrapers. We grew as our customer base grew. More trucks, more services, more highly-trained Golan’s movers and staff. But our commitment to making moving easy for our customers has never changed. ICC 93712 US DOT 504435 MC 258359

Myth: pack the truck by grabbing whatever is closest.

Reality: the boxes and furniture you'll need first at the new place should load last, so they come off first. Loading in reverse order of when you'll need it saves a frantic dig through the truck later.

Load the truck by building out from the side walls first, leaving the middle open. That's what lets one person walk a tall wrapped piece straight back to the far end without turning it sideways to squeeze past anything already stacked on either side.

Passing a box hand to hand between two movers beats one person walking it solo, every single time. It's faster, it keeps a second set of eyes on the corners, and nobody has to backtrack for the next load.

Label every box on the side, not the top. Boxes get stacked, and a label on top disappears the moment something else lands on it. Side labels stay visible no matter how the truck gets loaded.

Twenty years of relocating Chicago area companies taught us that the real time waster after an office move is not the truck, it is the shuffling once everything arrives. Our marking system gets every carton and every desk to its exact spot the first time. 💼

Plants are usually the last thing packed and the first thing people want back out on a shelf. Keep them in their own box, upright, and away from anything that could crush a leaf on the ride over.

Soft items like pillows and throws are the easiest packing win of the whole move. Use them as padding around fragile items instead of buying extra bubble wrap, two jobs done with one box.
