Out-of-state hauls out of Chicago go on one truck with one Waley crew. The same two movers who tape the last carton in your Logan Square three-flat are the two who unload it on the Indianapolis driveway, the Milwaukee duplex porch or the Detroit suburb cul-de-sac. There is no relay yard outside Gary, no interlined van-line carrier, no “we’ll call when it gets there.” Reggie Brooks drives the I-65, I-94 and I-55 lanes himself most months, and Marcus runs the Indianapolis and Milwaukee corridor once a month just to keep the dispatch instincts honest.
Six steady out-of-state lanes off the Kennedy
Out of the Milwaukee Avenue yard the regular lanes are Indianapolis on I-65 at 185 miles, Milwaukee on I-94 at 95 miles, Detroit on I-94 at 285 miles, St. Louis on I-55 at 300 miles, Minneapolis on I-90 plus I-94 at 410 miles, and Cincinnati on I-65 plus I-74 at 300 miles. Anything else in the Midwest, the Southeast or the Mountain time-zone gets routed and priced on its own with Eddy reading the inventory list line by line.
Binding figures, federal coverage, a real arrival window
Long-distance flats start at $2,990 and are written off a real in-home walkthrough or a slow video tour — never a phone guess. The $215 deposit applies straight to the total. Federal household-goods rules give you $1M of cargo coverage on every interstate Waley shipment under our own federal operating authority, with a $0.60-per-pound released-value baseline and full-value protection available if you want every line replaced at today’s number. Trish writes a real arrival date into the contract before you sign, and Reggie or Marcus is the one phone you call from the Kennedy on-ramp to the destination driveway.
What's Covered
- Binding flat-rate quote from $2,990 written off Eddy’s walkthrough or slow video tour, with the $215 deposit applied straight to the total before tax
- Reggie Brooks or Marcus Waley personally driving the over-the-road leg — no swap-out at Gary, no van-line interline, no shared trailer with someone else’s freight
- Federal household-goods $1,000,000 cargo coverage on every interstate shipment under our own federal operating authority, with full-value protection available as an upgrade
- $0.60-per-pound released-value baseline plus a nine-month written claim window, both per federal interstate-mover rules and printed inside the contract
- Heated pad-wrap and tie-down for the whole route so December lake-effect cold and freezing rain on I-65 do not split a veneer or a piano lid
- A real arrival date and one phone — Reggie or Marcus — from the Kennedy on-ramp to the destination driveway, no dispatcher hot-potato
What's the Cost?
Interstate Waley work originating at the Milwaukee Avenue yard begins on a signed flat of $2,990
Whatever Illinois flat figure you sign at the Milwaukee Avenue counter is the only figure that ever appears on this job — the scale ticket out of Logan Square is the only scale ticket, no second weigh at a Joliet truck stop, no “recalc” on the unload paperwork. The number Marcus printed on the bill of lading is the number you initial when the last strap clicks open at the destination drop.
