With limestone and brick mansions, tree-lined streets, and Lake Michigan nearby, Kenwood is one of the most distinct neighborhoods in Chicago. Our professionals will make sure that you have a smooth experience, whether you’re moving to Kenwood for the first time, relocating from another area, or moving within this elegant neighborhood.
Kenwood residents have unique moving requirements due to the neighborhood’s high-end architecture, and we offer tailored solutions to meet those needs:
Kenwood has an array of housing options including historic mansions built in the late 19th century, and modern condominiums and apartments. Vintage homes often require particular attention during moving due to intricately designed woodwork, old furnishings, and narrow doorways. Most of the high-rise buildings along the lakefront have service elevators, but scheduling is critical. Some of these elevators have weight and time restrictions for moving.
Finding a parking spot in Kenwood can be problematic, particularly around the University of Chicago campus. Most older homes have driveways, but parking a moving truck on the street can still be challenging due to permit restrictions. Residential streets seem to be the worst as they require permits for moving trucks. We recommend scheduling moves on weekdays when parking availability is better than on weekends.
In certain high-rise buildings, moving day tends to come with additional challenges such as securing elevator access which is usually 1-2 weeks prior. Most of the older Renaissance architecture buildings have specific rules concerning moving. We advise that you start planning your moves at least one month before to ensure a smooth transition, especially in peak periods.
