Can You Move High-Value Furniture and Art in Lincoln Park?

Last updated: October 2026

Yes. Our white glove and art moving services exist for exactly this neighborhood's homes.

Lincoln Park homes often hold pieces that are far more than furniture. Original art. Designer furniture. Antiques passed down for generations. Rugs, sculpture, and collections built over a lifetime. Moving those pieces takes more than blankets and a dolly. It takes planning, the right materials, and a crew that treats every piece with care, from the painting over the fireplace to the side table that looks ordinary but turns out to be the most valuable thing in the room.

Art

Art gets special handling. Always. Paintings and framed pieces are wrapped individually. For oversized, glass-faced, or high-value pieces, we build custom crates ourselves. Read do you build custom crates for art, mirrors, and fragile items and can you move sculpture.

If an installer or a gallery is involved, we work with them. Read do you work with art installers or gallery staff.

Antiques

Antiques are wrapped one piece at a time. Mirrors come off dressers, tops lift off sideboards, and doors come off wardrobes when that makes the move safer. Read our antique furniture moving guide.

Designer furniture

High-end furniture often has delicate finishes, fine fabrics, and complex assembly. Moving blankets pad furniture for free during every move, and shrink wrap keeps fabrics clean. Assembly and disassembly are always included in our hourly rate.

White glove

With white glove, you rest while we work. We handle every step. You let us in, and when we leave, you can start living in your new place. Read white glove vs. standard moving.

Greystones and narrow stairs

High-value pieces in a greystone have to come down narrow stairs or go out through a window. Read can you move furniture up a narrow greystone staircase and is hoisting safe for the furniture.

Coverage

Every move includes our standard coverage, which is based on weight. Art and fine furniture are often worth far more than their weight suggests. For valuable pieces, you can buy full coverage insurance through us or through your own insurer. Read are you licensed and insured.

Storage

If pieces need to wait between homes, we can keep them in our indoor storage, which is temperature-controlled, heated in winter and cooled in summer. Read how our storage is protected.
