Meet at baggage claim
One of the longer airport runs from O'Hare, and one where flight tracking earns its keep. We watch your flight, meet you at baggage claim in Terminals 1 through 3 or at Terminal 5 for international arrivals, and load your bags ourselves. For first-year move-in, an SUV or Sprinter takes the boxes and bins in one trip.
Kennedy and Dan Ryan south
The route runs the Kennedy and Dan Ryan (I-90/94) south, then east toward campus, with many drivers cutting over to Lake Shore Drive when the Ryan is heavy.
The right building
We drop you on the Quad side, at a residence hall like Snell-Hitchcock or the Max Palevsky Commons, at the Booth School in Harper Center, or at a hotel near 53rd Street. Move-in days jam the streets off Ellis and University Avenues, so we time the approach and stop as close to your building as the crews allow.
Upfront fare confirmed before you pay
Under two minutes to book.
