Hometown Heroes in Illinois

  • Michael Jordan

    First on this list is not only one of the best athletes in Illinois, but one of the greatest athletes of all time. Michael Jordan is a 6-time NBA champion and is a major influence in athletics. His ability to dominate is known throughout the world. No matter where you go, everyone knows Michael Jordan.

  • Otto Graham

    Another heavy hitter on this list is Otto Graham. 7-time champion, 5-time Pro Bowler, 10 time All-Pro, and 5-time MVP. His titles alone can show you his authority on the field as a quarterback in the NFL. His ability to read and move on the field is a spectacle worth seeing.

FAQ

How to Choose a Mover

You should never take your choice of moving company lightly – it takes some legwork and research to make sure you’re making the right decision. You never want to rush into it by simply picking the first one you see in an Internet search or the first one you see in the Yellow Pages.

 

The Illinois movers with National Van Lines are standing by to handle all of the details of your relocation. To schedule an appointment or get more information, call us at 877-209-9496.

In order to make the best choice possible for your needs, follow these helpful tips:

  • Call at least two or three movers and get detailed quotes from all of them.
  • During the time you’re obtaining those quotes, make sure you focus on weight estimates. There is a serious risk that major problems can occur on moving day if the weight of the items to be shipped is underestimated.
  • If your move takes you across state lines, be 100 percent certain your mover is licensed to do so.
  • Choose whether you are going to pack on your own or get those services from your moving company.
  • Cover any odd circumstances with your moving company well in advance of moving day. These include narrow streets, parking prohibitions or anything else you can think of.
