Are the movers really artists?
Yes, most of them are.
How does using your services benefit artists?
Starving Artist is owned by artists- we also take less profit from the
jobs than is customary, so that we can pay a much better wage to the
artists who work for us. This also ensures that they will be far more careful
with your belongings than the $8/hour guys sent by the larger
companies.
What are your rates?
$75/hour for two men, $95/hour for three men- two hour minimum + $75
truck and travel (north and central Chicago- call for south side and
suburban rates)
Can you move my
piano?
No, I am
sorry, but we are not equipped to move pianos.

Will you
load or unload my rental truck? What are the rates for this?
Yes- $180 for the first two hours, $75/hour after that (two man rate)
Can I help with my move?
Yes you can if you like, as long as you are not getting on and off the
truck.
How should I prepare for my move? How well should I protect my
belongings?
The more organized you are, the faster your move will go, and the less
expensive it will be. Small items should be boxed, drawers do not
need to be emptied, as long as they are removable. In general,
provide as much protection as you feel is necessary for your
belongings. I will be adding a planning guide to this site in the
near future- meanwhile, feel free to call or email with your questions.
