Movers from
Chicago to New York

711 miles typically runs 2–3 days with a professional crew, depending on load size and weather. Expedited (same-truck, direct) options are available on most routes.

CouthActs isn't an insurer, and nothing is covered by default. Your mover is responsible for your goods under its contract with you and the law, so ask about its own insurance and valuation options. You can also add an optional Protection plan when you post, from Basic ($15, up to $500) to Elite (up to your declared value, max $50,000). It's a limited reimbursement program, not insurance, and it pays after other recovery.

Your budget is held when you post, and the agreed price when you book. The mover is paid once you both confirm the move is complete. If something's off, open a dispute and the funds stay frozen until it's sorted.

Yes. Providers bid fixed, all-in quotes based on your inventory list, home size, and timing. No sudden surcharges on move day.

Agree a new date with your mover in chat. If the booking is canceled before the move starts, the full held amount goes back to your wallet (posting and Protection fees aren't refunded).
