Alsam Movers is a licensed Illinois moving company based in Schaumburg, running our own trucks and W-2 crews across the Northwest Suburbs since 2014. We were built to fix one thing about moving in Chicagoland: the gap between the quote and the bill.

Why Marcus started Alsam

Owner Marcus Delgado grew up between Schaumburg and Hoffman Estates and spent years running trucks through Chicagoland for other outfits. He kept seeing the same two problems: hourly rates that ballooned on moving day, and crews that showed up late, short-handed, or not at all.

The idea behind the name

One flat written rate for the Northwest Suburbs, movers on payroll instead of day labor, and an early start that beats the snow and the I-90 rush. Marcus put his name on the trucks in 2014 and hasn’t changed the rule since.

The crew behind the trucks

Alsam runs seven trucks and a roster of uniformed, background-checked W-2 movers — not contractors pulled off a load board. The people who quote your move are the people who do it.

  • Tyrell Banks — lead crew chief, runs our biggest residential jobs
  • Cole Ramirez — crew chief and packing lead
  • Diego Salas — dispatcher who maps every route and start time
  • Krista Vance — office manager, builds your written quote

What makes Alsam different

Plenty of “movers” in the Chicago area are really brokers selling your job to whoever’s cheapest that week. We’re the opposite.

Our own crew, start to finish

No brokers, no subcontractors, no load boards. Alsam trucks and Alsam movers handle the whole job, from packing to the last box.

A flat rate you can hold us to

You get the price in writing before we load. Early-start crews keep us ahead of lake-effect snow and rush hour, so the schedule holds too.

Why the Northwest Suburbs Book Alsam Movers

From downtown Schaumburg out to Hoffman Estates and the Woodfield corridor, a crew that has worked Chicago winters for years.

Early Starts That Beat the Snow

From December through March the lake-effect snow and morning ice slow every street in the suburbs, so our crew loads your Schaumburg home early and keeps the truck moving before rush hour builds. We salt the walk paths and never leave furniture sitting in the cold across the Northwest Suburbs and greater Chicagoland.

Top-Rated IL Crews

Every mover at your door is on the Alsam Movers payroll: full-time, background-checked, W-2, and trained the way Marcus runs the Northwest Suburbs — never temp labor pulled off a list. That is how we hold a 5-star rating on Google and Yelp.

One Flat Written Rate

Your number is settled on paper before the first box leaves your Schaumburg door, and it holds even when I-90 backs up or the job runs long. Cross-Illinois hauls are quoted as a binding total in writing — nothing tacked on at delivery.

No Brokers, No Subcontractors

Every truck that rolls up to a Schaumburg curb carries the Alsam Movers name on the door, and each mover aboard draws a W-2 paycheck. Your job stays off the bidding sites — one Northwest Suburbs company owns it end to end.

Fully Insured, $1M Cargo

Illinois clears us for in-state moves, while crossing a state line puts us on USDOT/MC authority. A $1 million cargo policy backs every Northwest Suburbs job, no exceptions.

On Time Across the Suburbs

A two-hour arrival window and a call when the truck rolls out of the yard. We plan around the I-90 Jane Addams crawl, the I-290 and Route 53 backups, and winter snow so your closing date still holds.

Packing & Supplies Included

Pack the whole house or just the rooms that worry you. Cartons, pads, dollies, and rolls of shrink film are on board before the crew leaves the yard, so wrapping starts the moment we arrive at your Schaumburg place.

Specialty Moves Handled

Pianos, gun safes, pool tables, and oversized pieces moved with the right boards, straps, and a crew chief who has eased them through tight gates and three-car garages across the Northwest Suburbs before.

Your Easy Schaumburg Move

A flat written rate, then loading, then unloading at your new Northwest Suburbs address — three steps, start to finish.

1

Tell Us About Your Move

Send us the basics, including any heavy or specialty piece, and Marcus’s office works up one clear flat-rate Northwest Suburbs price — no fine print, no guessing.

2

We Wrap & Protect

Our crew arrives early, blankets and shrink-wraps your furniture before rush hour and the weather turn, and handles every bit of the heavy lifting.

3

Move to Your New Home

We haul everything across the suburbs or out of state, unload box by box into the right rooms, and reassemble the furniture. Welcome home!
