What to know about moving in Aurora

The total cost of moving in Aurora depends on a few things, like when you’re moving, how much stuff you’re moving, and how far you’re moving. Full-service moves are the most expensive option, averaging about $9,000.1 Moving containers cost around $3,800 while moving van rentals are the most affordable choice, averaging $1,000.

Aurora is a safe, family-friendly community known for its charming suburbs and host of amenities. It’s close to other Chicago suburbs like Naperville, Oswego, and Batavia, as well as attractions like Chicago Premium Outlets, Blackberry Farm, Phillips Park Zoo, and Splash Country Water Park.

The average cost of an interstate move is $9,060,1 but this total will fluctuate depending on how much stuff you’re moving, the time of year, and how far you’re moving. If you’re moving during the summer and have a larger home, you can expect to spend more than the average of $9,000. On the other hand, if you move during the off-season and live in a one-bedroom apartment, you’ll probably spend much less.

Moving containers generally cost $3 per mile or $3,870 total, so you can use those estimates to better understand moving container costs in Aurora.2 You may end up paying more if you’re moving a farther distance or if you move during a time of high demand for this service.
