Gym equipment movers in Chicago, IL

Lugg movers deliver all types of home gym and fitness equipment in Chicago, from cardio machines to strength training gear and accessories.

That includes treadmills, ellipticals, exercise bikes (including Peloton and smart bikes), rowing machines, pilates reformers, weight benches, squat racks, compact cable machines, adjustable dumbbells, plates, kettlebells, boxed gym accessories, and more.

Lugg's weight limit is 125 lbs per Lugger, or 250 lbs per item on any vehicle that comes with two Luggers: Pickup, Van, XL, Box or Box+. Anything heavier needs more Luggers on the job, so book a second Lugg for the same time window. There's no limit on how many items you move, and size comes down to which vehicle you choose.

Yes, Lugg can pick up your gym equipment from stores like Dick's Sporting Goods, Best Buy, or local fitness retailers, as well as warehouses and marketplace sellers in Chicago. Once your crew is en route, you can also call and text directly to relay any additional or last-minute details.

Tip: Upload a photo or receipt during booking so we grab the correct model and accessories. For marketplace pickups, add the seller's number as an "Additional Contact" so the crew can coordinate directly.

Yes, you can load as much as safely fits into your chosen truck, from a pickup to a box truck.

Need multiple stops? Lugg supports up to 5 pickups or drop-offs per Lugg, so you can coordinate multi-location gym setups in one booking.

Yes, Lugg can pick up your new gym equipment and then haul away the old one to a recycling facility or donate it to a local charity, including donation centers like Goodwill or Habitat ReStore near Chicago. Just add an extra stop when booking your move. If your new gym equipment is coming from a partner store, that extra stop means your Lugg is priced as a standard Lugg, with labor billed by the minute at every stop.

Tip: Donation and disposal centers vary widely in what they accept, so we recommend calling ahead to confirm they can take your gym equipment, along with their hours and any potential fees.

Yes, Lugg serves commercial gyms, fitness studios, and offices with flexible delivery scheduling and larger truck options (Van, XL, or Box). Ideal for fitness studios, apartment gyms, or corporate wellness centers needing professional delivery or relocation in Chicago.

Yes, with Lugg you can book on-demand, same-day, and next-day gym equipment moves. Movers and a truck can arrive within the hour, or you can schedule up to 60 days in advance for a time that works best for you.

Pick the truck that fits what you're moving. Almost every option is a two-Lugger booking, so crew size isn't usually the decision — the Lugg Lite is the exception.

• Lite: 6 ft+ long × 4.5 ft wide. A single Lugger with a pickup truck, for a stack of boxes or a few lighter pieces.
• Pickup: 6 ft+ long × 4.5 ft wide. The same truck as the Lite, with a second Lugger.
• Van: 8 ft+ long × 4 ft wide × 4.5 ft tall. Enclosed, so better in bad weather.
• XL: 10 ft+ long × 5.5 ft wide × 6.4 ft tall.
• Box: 12–16 ft long × 6 ft wide × 7 ft tall.
• Box+: 18–24 ft long × 6 ft wide × 7 ft tall. The largest option, built for commercial relocations and anything that needs maximum cargo space.

Tip: Pickup trucks carry a tarp for light rain, but book an enclosed truck — Van, XL, Box or Box+ — if heavier rain is forecast. When in doubt, size up.

Not all box trucks have a lift gate. If your gym equipment move needs one, say so in the 'What are you moving?' field when booking and Lugg will do its best to accommodate.

Yes, Luggers in Chicago are experienced with walk-ups and tight spaces. Your Lugg crew will carefully bring your furniture to or from your room of choice, exactly where you want it.

Heavy gym equipment notice: Please confirm stairs are wide enough to accommodate safe placement, as Luggers can't hoist appliances or use ladders.

Clear a 3–4 ft path around it, unplug it, and take off anything loose, like weight plates, a screen or tablet, or a water bottle. If it folds, fold it and lock it in place. Measure the doorways and stairwells at both ends so you know it will fit, and reserve an elevator or loading dock if your building requires it.

If your gym equipment has to be taken apart to fit through a doorway or into the truck, book the manufacturer's or a certified technician to do that before the move and to put it back together after. Treadmills, exercise bikes, rowers, ellipticals and cable machines can need specific tools and torque settings, and the wrong teardown can void a warranty. Once it's ready, Lugg movers carry it in one piece or in the pieces it's already in.

Yes, every Lugg move comes with moving equipment: straps, dollies, moving blankets and stretch wrap to protect your gym equipment in transit and while it's placed in your home. Luggers also carry basic hand tools, like a screwdriver with bits or a drill, and an Allen key or hex wrench.

Luggers move heavy exercise equipment through tight spaces, stairs and doorways every day, but they aren't trained exercise-equipment technicians, so assembly and disassembly should be handled by the manufacturer's or a certified technician.

We always recommend inspecting your gym equipment upon arrival. In the rare event that damage occurs to your item(s) or your property in Chicago, our Support Team will promptly review the issue, coordinate any necessary repairs or replacements, and work with you to make things right.
