Highland to Columbus

Columbus sits east, around 285 miles on a route that picks up the Indiana Toll Road on I-90, drops south to I-65 for a short stretch, then finishes on I-70 into the city, a different kind of lane than our straight north-south runs. Households make the move for a logistics or insurance-industry job, a transfer near Ohio State, or a change from Region winters to a milder stretch of Ohio.

  • Distance285 mi east
  • RouteI-90 / I-65 / I-70
  • Drive timearound 4 hours 45 minutes

  • Our crew carries the load across three interstates into Columbus, no truck swap partway

  • Departure timed around the interstate connectors and, November through March, any lake-effect band trailing the Toll Road
  • Short-term storage available if your Columbus place hasn’t closed yet

Assembling a three-interstate run

This route runs longer than most of our Ohio-bound jobs because of the interstate connectors, long enough that we plan it as a full day rather than a same-morning push. Marcus pencils the I-90-to-I-65-to-I-70 handoffs into the schedule before your move date is ever confirmed, so it isn’t something the crew improvises on the road.

Three interstates, one schedule

Connector traffic where I-90 meets I-65, and again where I-65 meets I-70, can back up hard on a weekday afternoon. Marcus checks all three legs the morning of a Columbus move and builds a buffer into the schedule rather than pushing a load into rush hour at the end of a long day.

Three interstates and 285 miles still add up to one number, settled before the truck ever leaves the Ridge Road yard. — Jeff Nowicki, owner

Why Region families call us for a move that crosses the state line into a Chicago high-rise, a Highland ranch home with a packed basement and narrow driveway, or a cross-town move that has to beat Borman rush-hour traffic

The Short List We Hold Ourselves To

Not marketing copy — just what Jeff and the crew commit to on every Region job, whether the address is a Griffith split-level or a postwar ranch in Highland.

One Number, Start to Finish

Whatever Jeff or Denise quotes on the phone is what prints on the invoice once the truck rolls up, a Chicago Skyway toll and a flight of stairs at the new place already priced in.

Indiana-Registered, Fully Insured

Current Indiana household-goods registration stays on file, cargo coverage rides with every load, and any downtown Chicago building manager or property manager gets proof of it the same day they ask.

Payroll Crew, Not Day Labor

Everyone lifting a box for you draws a paycheck from Jeff's Movers directly — never a name pulled off a board that morning.

What You Sign Is What You Owe

Whatever slows a job down — Skyway traffic, a lake-effect reschedule, a tight turn near a Munster cul-de-sac — stays off the invoice. Book the number Jeff quotes, and that's exactly what's due once the truck is unloaded.

One Crew, Door to Door

There's no swap partway through the job. The movers who carry boxes out of your old place are the exact same ones setting them down in the new one.

You Won't Be Left Wondering

Every arrival window has slack built in on purpose. Should the job ahead of yours drag on, Marcus's dispatch desk rings you before that window runs out, and we make up for the wait.
