Reserved Parking
Picture these two different scenarios. First, your moving truck arrives only to find no parking space big enough for the truck and must double park in the middle of the street or in an alley behind your building. Second, your moving truck arrives and slides right into a reserved parking space directly in front of your residence.
If you have a reserved parking space directly in front of your residence, your move is more efficient, takes less time and costs you less. The secret is to have Low Cost Movers, INC take care of the paperwork, payment of the permit fees, and completion of Chicago insurance requirements. A reserved parking area for our truck(s) must be obtained through the City of Chicago in advance of your scheduled move.
The permit must be ordered through our office at least 85 business hours before the move. The City of Chicago will then place ‘no parking’ signs at the address of the permit.
Your cost for a reserved parking permit is $75 per day for the first truck, plus an additional $25 per day for a second truck. These costs are never refundable. In addition to the permit cost, the City of Chicago may seek to collect lost revenue when the permitted area is within a paybox (meter) area. The exact charges will vary. In the ‘business district’, the cost can be as much as an additional $150 per day. Alternatively, you and a friend can park two cars in legal spaces on the street in order to "save" a large parking spot for the truck and then move your cars when the truck arrives.
You can also apply for a reserved parking permit yourself. Simply search who the alderman is in our area in the Ward/Zone Lookup. You can apply for a parking permit through them, usually at no charge.
