Meet at baggage claim
Whether you're a parent flying in for September move-in or an alum back for Homecoming, the driver adjusts to your real landing time. Come down to baggage claim in Terminal 1, 2, or 3 (or the Terminal 5 arrivals hall) and your chauffeur is there with a name sign. Booking an SUV or Sprinter for move-in means it all fits in one trip.
North on I-294, into Evanston on the Edens
The drive heads north on I-294 to I-94 (the Edens) and into Evanston. Move-in weekend turns the streets around Sheridan Road and the residential quads into a slow crawl, so we time the run and drop you as close to your hall as the marshals allow.
Your building, by name
Tell us the building when you book: Bobb, Allison, the Kellogg Global Hub, Welsh-Ryan Arena for a game. On football Saturdays Central Street and the lots near Ryan Field fill early, so we drop you a short walk out or hold for a window.
Upfront fare confirmed before you pay
Under two minutes to book.
