01 Overview

The Frisco-to-Chicago lane runs in both directions, but plenty of it is North Texans moving north for work or family. It’s a serious long-haul at about 925 miles, and we run it as a dedicated single-truck job — our crew loads your Frisco home, drives it up, and the same crew handles the Chicago-side unload, whether that’s a suburban house or a downtown high-rise. Your shipment never gets transferred to anyone else.

Headed out of Texas for good? North Texas moving crew keeps the entire haul on one truck with one crew, the price locked in writing before we load.

North on I-45 and I-55

We leave Frisco on I-45 toward Dallas, then track up through Oklahoma and Missouri before joining I-55 across Illinois into the Chicago metro. It’s roughly fourteen hours of driving, so we load early in Frisco and schedule it as an overnight haul with a written delivery window — no guesswork on when your things arrive.

Why people make the move

  • Corporate transfers between the DFW and Chicago business markets
  • Professionals returning to the Midwest for jobs or family
  • Families moving for downtown careers and access to the lakefront
  • Reverse moves following company relocations north

What changes up north

This is a big climate flip. You’re leaving North Texas’s long, hot summers and short winters for Chicago’s hard winters — real snow, lake-effect cold, and ice that lasts. Housing shifts too: instead of slab-built suburban two-stories, you’re often dealing with basements, three-flats, and high-rise units with strict move-in rules. Our crews handle the Certificates of Insurance, elevator reservations, and tight downtown loading zones that come with city moving.

Flat-rate, with storage if the dates slip

No hourly clock on a 925-mile move. You get a binding flat price after the survey, a $140 deposit reserves your date and credits to the final bill, and if your Chicago place isn’t ready we hold your goods in our own secured storage until it is.

02 Why us

The name on the truck and the name on your contract are one and the same

Book SHWIX and the truck pulling up to your slab-built two-story is ours, the contract is ours, and the uniformed crew carrying your sectional down the stairs is on our North Texas payroll — your job never gets sold off. A broker works the other direction: they auction your move to whoever bids lowest that week, then drop out of the picture entirely.

SHWIX Movers
  • We own the trucks, and the full-time, background-checked movers riding in them work for us — we never fill out a crew with day labor pulled off a listing board
  • The number we write down is the number you pay — locked, signed, and accurate to the dollar before anyone lifts a box
  • The same crew the whole way through, from the first item out of the old house to the last one set in the new one
  • Texas (TxDMV) household-goods registration, USDOT/MC authority for interstate runs, and every job backed by full insurance with up to $1,000,000 in cargo coverage
  • One Frisco office and one point of contact, from the first call to the last box carried inside
What a broker does
  • Farms your move out to whichever outfit happens to bid lowest that particular week
  • Lets the price climb on move day, loaded up with fees that nobody mentioned at the start
  • Sends total strangers you have never spoken to into your home, your whole household trusted to people you cannot vouch for
  • Stays fuzzy about whose policy actually pays out when a flat screen ends up on the floor
  • Parks a call center between you and whoever eventually shows up to load, turning a simple question into a runaround

From customers on the long hauls

★★★★★

“Did a fantastic job moving my partner and I. We moved from one top floor apartment to another 8 miles away and the guys got it done in just one day. They were also kind and helpful, they were able to stay on task even with other movers also in the way (another person was moving out using the same elevator ) I highly recommend them.”

“David and Bryce were super great at helping us move our stuff! They were very respectful and efficient. David was very organized and Bryce willing to help however he could. They both worked very hard and made sure our stuff was safely packed and moved. We would definitely consider using them again for our next move.”

Questions we hear about this route

How long is the move from Frisco to Chicago?
Chicago is about 925 miles north on I-45 and I-55, roughly fourteen hours of driving. We load in Frisco and deliver to the Chicago area on a scheduled window, normally the next day. The same crew and truck stay together the whole route, so the movers who load you also unload you.
Is the price binding for a move this far?
Yes. We survey your home and give you one flat, binding number for the full Frisco-to-Chicago job — long haul, fuel, labor, and materials all in. It only changes if you change the inventory or services, which we re-quote with you before move day. No add-ons appear at delivery.
Do you handle high-rise and walk-up deliveries in the city?
All the time. Chicago is full of three-flats, walk-ups, and downtown high-rises with elevator reservations and tight loading zones. We plan the city-side logistics in advance — Certificate of Insurance for the building, elevator booking, parking permits — so the unload goes smoothly. That access is factored into your flat quote.
