Services
Residential Moving
We specialize in local and long-distance residential moves, handling apartments, condos, townhomes, and houses. Our trained crews use protective materials and specialized equipment to ensure safe transport of belongings. From small studios to multi-million-dollar estates, we provide full-service support including packing, loading, and furniture arrangement in new homes.
Commercial Moving
Our commercial moving service handles business relocations with minimal downtime. We move offices, retail spaces, and corporate equipment using liftgate-equipped trucks. Services include disassembling/reassembling furniture, secure transport of sensitive equipment, and coordinating moves during off-hours to maintain business continuity for clients in Chicago and surrounding suburbs.
Packing Services
We offer full or partial packing services with premium materials available for purchase. Our team expertly packs fragile items, electronics, and valuable possessions using industry-standard techniques. We also provide unpacking assistance and room-specific box placement to streamline the settling-in process for residential and commercial clients.
Local & Long-Distance Moves
Covering Chicago metro and nationwide destinations, our moving service combines local expertise with cross-country logistics. We handle all move sizes with consistent care, using GPS-tracked vehicles for long-distance shipments. Local moves benefit from our neighborhood knowledge, while long-distance relocations use climate-controlled trailers for added protection.
Loading & Unloading
We provide professional loading/unloading support for rental trucks and storage units. Our team optimizes space for maximum efficiency while protecting items during transit. This service includes careful handling of oversized furniture, pianos, and specialty equipment, with optional furniture arrangement upon delivery to final locations.

They moved us recently. I don't plan to ever move again if I can help it, but if we did, I would choose AMPOL again.

Hired them to help me move from a 4 bedroom home to a 2 bedroom condo. I had concerns about everything from TVs to pictures to plants and Marcin was very reassuring and patient. The team (Peter, Andrei and Gregory) showed up on time and ready to go. They worked efficiently and hard. I had some heavy pieces and they powered through!! Gregory was really good about checking in with me to make sure they had gotten everything.
I had a lot to store in the garage and they stacked everything neatly so I'll still be able to park my car in the garage! I would highly recommend them and would definitely use them again!!! Thank you Ampol!

This review is almost a year later...AmPol moved all my large furniture last June from a 3rd floor condo into a ground floor & basement floor ranch. The 3 man crew were prompt, extremely efficient, very careful, highly professional, & friendly too (all 3 men on the crew & I spoke Polish with one another). Ampol was recommended to me by an acquaintance of mine who had used them 3 months prior to my move & I would highly recommend their services.
The price quoted was on-point & very fair & for an extra some odd dollars they even hauled away some old furniture we had sitting curbside that hadn't been picked up by scavengers nor by our suburban garbage service. That was a HUGE extra bonus for us!

AmPol did an incredible job! After seeing so many positive reviews, we decided to give Marcin and his team the job. We were thoroughly impressed with their work. Two closings can make for a very long day. And it was! Twelve hours later, we were so pleased. They were so hard-working and efficient on bothered the move out and into our new home! Thank you ~ Great job!!
