Palatine's housing is largely from the 1970s and '80s (45.5% of homes) and splits between houses, townhomes and condo or apartment buildings. In the houses, that means garage and basement cleanouts. In the 16.2% of homes in 5–9 unit buildings and the 12.9% in buildings of 20 or more, it means move-outs with stairs, elevators, building rules and a deadline. The crew does all the carrying, and a move-out house or carpet cleaning can follow the haul.

Questions Palatine residents ask
Can you clear a water-damaged basement in Palatine?
Yes. Palatine has FEMA-mapped floodplain along Salt Creek and Buffalo Creek, and when a basement takes on water we haul out soaked carpet, furniture and boxes, carrying everything up with no stair fee. Carpet or upholstery cleaning is available for pieces worth saving.
Do you handle move-outs from Palatine condo buildings?
Yes. 12.9% of Palatine homes are in buildings of 20 or more units and 16.2% in 5–9 unit buildings. Send us the building's move rules; we book the elevator, loading area or move time with management and carry everything down ourselves.
Can your truck work in a Palatine townhome community?
Yes. Townhomes are 15.5% of Palatine's housing, and associations sometimes limit where a truck can stand. Tell us the rules when you book and we follow them, parking only while we load; a move-out or carpet cleaning can follow the haul.
