I can’t recommend TJ and Lansana enough! They helped me with a last minute request and went above and beyond to accommodate me. They expertly moved an extremely heavy piece of furniture-easily over 300 lbs- up a flight of stairs, all while navigating snowy conditions. The crew was incredibly careful and professional throughout the entire process. I was truly impressed and left speechless by their dedication and skills.

Gym and fitness equipment moving service in Chicago
Lugg moves gym and fitness equipment between homes, apartments, storage units and commercial gyms, and the thing worth checking before you book is what the heaviest single piece weighs, because that decides how many movers you need. Lugg's weight limit is 125 pounds per Lugger, or 250 pounds per item on any vehicle that comes with two Luggers: Pickup, Van, XL, Box or Box+. Lugg is an on-demand moving and delivery service that moves gym, fitness and exercise equipment in Chicago, with a truck and the muscle to load it, for pieces that are too heavy and too awkward to shift alone.
What each piece weighs
The only number that matters is the heaviest single piece. Under 125 pounds one Lugger can carry it, so any Lugg works, including a Lite. Between 125 and 250 pounds you need a vehicle that comes with two Luggers. Over 250, book a second Lugg for the same day and time with the same two addresses, and both crews arrive together.
| Piece | Typical weight |
|---|---|
| Mats, bands, kettlebells | 5-50 lb each |
| Adjustable bench | 40-70 lb |
| Olympic barbell | 45 lb, about 7 ft long |
| Plates | 2.5-45 lb each |
| Spin or exercise bike | 100-140 lb |
| Elliptical | 150-250 lb |
| Power rack or squat rack | 200-400 lb |
| Cable machine or functional trainer | 400-700 lb with the stacks in |
A rack, a bench and a full set of plates going to the same address is still one job, because the limit is per item and not per load. Three things are worth doing before the crew arrives: box the small plates and leave the 45s stacked to be carried singly, take the bar and any long attachments off the rack, and measure the narrowest turn on the route rather than the doorway.
Where a specialist comes in
Cable machines and functional trainers are the ones to plan around. The stacks, pulleys and cables are a torque-specific rebuild, cable tension has to be set correctly for the machine to work safely, and the warranty on most of them is sensitive to who did the work. Book the manufacturer's technician for the teardown and the rebuild, and book Lugg for the transport in between. The same goes for anything still under warranty that you'd rather not open up.
Whatever does come apart, bag the bolts and tape the bag to the frame they came off, so nothing arrives as a pile of parts with the hardware missing.
What it costs to move gym equipment in Chicago
The truck and crew size you pick sets the base fare and factors in the distance between your addresses, then labor runs by the minute once the crew arrives at each location, with no hourly minimums. Lugg movers carry equipment up stairs, into elevators and down long hallways. Enter both addresses and you'll see the estimate before anything is confirmed. Up to five stops fit on one booking, so clearing a rack out to a storage unit and dropping the plates somewhere else is one job, and moving equipment from one room to another in the same building is a booking like any other. If you're replacing equipment rather than relocating it, the old machine can ride along as an extra stop to a recycling center or donation site you choose.
