Movers reviewing a moving plan with a customer

Commercial Movers

Sunshine Movers works with businesses on commercial relocations that go well beyond desks and filing cabinets — retail build-outs, restaurants, warehouses, salons, gyms, clinics and light industrial spaces. We handle local commercial moves across Chicagoland and interstate relocations for businesses opening in a new state.

We quote commercial work after seeing the space. Fixtures, heavy equipment and tight freight access change a job substantially, and none of that is visible from a phone call.

How It Works?!

Commercial moves live or die on access and sequencing. We confirm both before quoting.

  • On-site survey of origin and destination, including dock and door measurements
  • Certificates of Insurance for landlords and property managers at both ends
  • Dock time, freight elevators and street access booked in advance
  • Machine skates, dollies, stair climbers and pallet jacks for heavy equipment
  • Shelving, racking and display fixtures dismantled and rebuilt

For retail and hospitality we generally work overnight so you close one evening and open the next day with your fixtures already in place.

Heavy Equipment
Commercial ovens, gym equipment, safes, tool chests and shop machinery moved with proper gear rather than improvisation.
Access Handled
Docks, freight lifts, alley clearances and permits confirmed before the truck is booked, not discovered on the day.
Trading Protected
Overnight and phased schedules built around your revenue hours, so the doors stay open as long as possible.

Benefits of Service

For a business, every closed day is lost revenue, and a botched commercial move can cost more in downtime than the entire moving bill. Surveying properly, confirming access and bringing the right equipment the first time is what prevents a one-night job turning into three. That planning is included in what we quote.

Yes. Machine skates, stair climbers and pallet jacks are standard kit for us. Tell us the weights and dimensions during the survey so we bring the right equipment and crew size.
Regularly. Overnight is usually the cheapest option overall for retail and hospitality once lost trading hours are counted.
Yes, for both buildings, issued to whatever wording your landlord or property manager requires.
