Moving the North Shore and Beyond

Lake County is a region of stunning diversity and natural beauty, stretching from the bluffs of Lake Michigan to the rolling equestrian estates of Barrington. Whether you are enjoying a summer concert at the Ravinia Festival in Highland Park, shopping at Hawthorn Mall in Vernon Hills, or sailing out of Waukegan Harbor, this area offers a lifestyle of luxury and leisure. Moving here requires navigating a landscape that includes historic downtowns, bustling corporate corridors, and quiet lakeside retreats.

 

When looking for Lake County movers, look no further than Hollander Storage and Moving. We have been around since 1888, serving this region long before the Tri-State Tollway connected these thriving suburbs. In that time, we have earned the trust of our customers over decades of moving residents and businesses. As an award-winning agent of United Van Lines, we offer the personal touch of a generations-old family business with the resources and support of a major national network.

Tips for Moving in Lake County

Watch the Tri-State Traffic

The Tri-State Tollway (I-94) and Route 41 (Skokie Highway) are the main arteries of Lake County. Traffic can be heavy during rush hour, especially near the Grand Avenue interchange in Gurnee (near Six Flags) and the Lake Cook Road border. We recommend scheduling your move start time for mid-morning to avoid peak commuter and tourist traffic.  

Plan Around Ravinia

In the summer, the Ravinia Festival in Highland Park draws massive crowds, causing congestion on Green Bay Road and Sheridan Road. If you live nearby, check the concert schedule. We may need to plan alternative routes or start times to ensure our trucks have clear access to your home.  

Prepare for Winter Access

Lake County often experiences heavier snowfall than the city due to lake-effect snow. If moving between December and March, ensure your driveway is plowed wide enough for a large truck. Long, winding driveways in areas like Bannockburn or Riverwoods must be cleared and salted for safe truck access.

This experience was excellent. Our crew was on time, courteous, and very professional. They were clearly experienced … taking any and all measures to move our possessions carefully. Can’t say enough good things about our crew (Kyle, Supervisor; Vedale; Conner, and Turtle). Thank you for doing such a good job!
