Moving the Village Where City Meets Suburb

Oak Park is a community internationally recognized for its architectural heritage and literary history. From the world-famous Frank Lloyd Wright Home and Studio to the bustling shops of the Hemingway District, this village offers a sophisticated urban-suburban lifestyle. Whether you are moving into a Prairie School masterpiece in the Frank Lloyd Wright Historic District, a vintage condo near Austin Gardens, or a modern apartment on Lake Street, you need a mover who understands the unique character of this town.

 

Welcome to the Hollander Storage and Moving Co. site! We are the Oak Park movers who have been creating satisfied customers since 1888. When you hire us, you get the best of the best: the personal care of a family-owned local business combined with the resources of an award-winning United Van Lines agent. We know how to navigate the narrow, tree-lined streets and strict parking regulations of Oak Park, ensuring your move is seamless from start to finish.

Comprehensive Moving Services in Oak Park

Local Residential Moving

Oak Park’s housing stock is legendary, ranging from Victorian "Painted Ladies" to intricate Prairie Style homes. Our local crews are experts at navigating these unique spaces. We understand the care required to move furniture through historic doorways and narrow stairwells found in the Gunderson Historic District. We treat your home with white-glove care, protecting your floors and architectural details while we handle the heavy lifting.

Long-Distance Relocation

If you are leaving the village for a new state, we are the partner you need. As a certified ProMover and agent for United Van Lines, we connect Oak Park residents to a trusted nationwide network. We handle the complex logistics of interstate travel, ensuring your belongings are tracked and protected from your driveway in Illinois to your new home in California, New York, or anywhere in the U.S.

International Moving

Oak Park is home to many global professionals and academics. If your career is taking you overseas, we manage the entire process. We handle customs documentation, freight forwarding, and export packing. Our team ensures your household goods are compliant with international shipping regulations, making your move to Europe, Asia, or beyond seamless.

Commercial and Office Moving

We support Oak Park’s thriving business community. Whether you are relocating a boutique in the Arts District on Harrison Street or a professional office on Madison Street, we execute efficient moves that minimize downtime. We handle everything from office furniture disassembly to sensitive IT equipment transport, allowing you to focus on your operations while we handle the logistics.

Corporate and Employee Relocation

We assist Oak Park companies and institutions in managing talent mobility. Whether you are transferring faculty to local educational institutions or moving executives out of state, our relocation specialists handle the details. We provide white-glove transitions that keep your employees focused on their work, not their packing boxes.

Senior Moving Services

We offer compassionate support for seniors moving into local retirement communities like Oak Park Arms or Holley Court Terrace. Our team understands the emotional weight of downsizing from a long-time family home. We assist with sorting, packing, and setting up the new residence to feel like home on day one. We bring patience and respect to every senior move.

Professional Packing Services

Packing delicate items requires skill. Our professional packers use high-quality materials to protect your valuables, from library collections to fragile art glass. We can pack your entire home or just the breakables. If you prefer to pack yourself, we can provide professional-grade supplies.

Secure Storage Solutions

If your new home isn't ready or you need extra space during a renovation, we offer secure warehousing options. Our facilities are monitored and climate-controlled, providing a safe harbor for your furniture or documents. We offer flexible storage solutions to meet any need, whether short-term or long-term.

Auto and Vehicle Shipping

Don't worry about driving multiple cars to your new destination. We offer reliable auto shipping services for Oak Park residents. Whether you need to transport a family sedan, a vintage car, or a motorcycle, we provide door-to-door transport that keeps your vehicle off the road and safe from wear and tear.

Tips for Moving in Oak Park

Secure Your Parking Permits

Oak Park is famous for its strict parking regulations, including the overnight parking ban. Moving trucks often require a Right of Way (ROW) Obstruction Permit to reserve curb space for loading. We recommend applying for this permit through the Village of Oak Park at least one week in advance to ensure our truck has a legal, convenient spot to park.  

Navigate the Cul-de-Sacs

Many residential streets in Oak Park, particularly near the Austin Boulevard border, are cul-de-sacs or dead-ends designed to reduce through traffic. This can make maneuvering large semi-trucks difficult. Let us know your exact street address during the estimate so we can determine if a smaller "shuttle" truck is needed to access your home safely.  

Watch the Eisenhower Traffic

The Eisenhower Expressway (I-290) is the main artery connecting Oak Park to Chicago and the western suburbs. Traffic at the Harlem Avenue and Austin Boulevard ramps is often congested. We plan our routes carefully to avoid peak rush hour times, ensuring a timely arrival at your new home.

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!
