Major Neighborhoods in Madison
One of the first things that likely comes to mind when you think of Madison is the lakes. And you’d be right! The city is settled directly between Mendota and Monoa lakes, and three more are nearby. The second thing you think of might be cheese or beer, and you can absolutely look forward to annual events like Great Taste of the Midwest. But a lesser-known gem of the city is its architecture. It’s home to both the iconic domed Wisconsin State Capitol building, built with over 40 types of stone, and the Monona Terrace, a stunning lakefront structure designed by legendary architect Frank Lloyd Wright. Whether it's the sparkling waterfronts, the good food, or the landmarks that draw you here, know that local movers can help make your relocation a breeze.
Downtown Madison
Downtown is the heart of the city in more ways than one. It serves as the central district for entertainment, food, and experiences, but it also contains a lot of major thoroughfares that act as arteries to the rest of the city. Namely, State Street, a locally beloved “pedestrian mall” that connects the capitol to the University of Wisconsin-Madison campus. You can visit tons of resturants, museums, and shops along it, or venture off the path and head to the Olbrich Botanical Gardens, home to 16 acres of sprawling gardens and beautiful structures. Or stop by the Dane County Farmer’s Market, which hosts nearly 260 vendors all year round. The area gets busy, so relying on local movers who know the traffic patterns and parking situation will make your move a breeze.
Near East Side
The Near East Side neighborhood is a lively area that’s packed with amenities just a few blocks from downtown. So what’s the difference? You’ll hear locals call Near East Side a little more bohemian or “funky”, likely due to the eclectic mash of historic homes next to modern condos and apartments. And because of the unique local venues and resturants, like Ogden’s North Street Diner which serves classic American breakfast and lunch. Or the North Street Cabaret, a venue so cozy you can enjoy live music, comedy, and other performances from practically anywhere you sit. You can even. take your pup for an off-leash stroll at Demetral Park. No matter where your new home is in the neighborhood, a local moving company that knows the area will make the transition stress-free.
West Side
The West Side neighborhood features mostly single-family homes and condos, and has a more suburban feel than its eastern siblings as a result. This is a perk if you’re the type who likes the quieter atmosphere while being close to amenities, but there are plenty of things to do and see in the area already. Summertime is perfect for renting a boat to cruise Lake Wingra, or you could visit the Henry Vilas Zoo to say hello to a plethora of unique animals. If shopping is more your thing, check out Monroe Street, dotted with many locally owned shops, or stop by Hilldale Mall for some upscale retail browsing and fine dining. Then leave the logistics to the pros and hire local movers to relocate you smoothly to your new home.
University Heights
With a name like University Heights, you’d expect it to be practically on campus. And that’s partly true — the university is so large, only its western edge sits at the head of this neighborhood. It’s within walking distance of Lake Mendota, and the historic single-family homes are popular with tenured and retired professors. The area is also home to Frank Lloyd Wright’s Gilmore House and many other buildings designed by famous local architects. There are plenty of local shops to frequent, like the Regent Market Co-Op, or favorite resident eateries like Blue Moon, which serves up burgers and a fantastic beer selection. It gets busy with the university students and hospital staff, so leave the nagivation to local movers who are familiar with the area and crowds.

Incredibly excellent and knowledgeable. Very fun to have around and will be using their services in the future. I've already recommended to a family moving soon!
Young Hitters Inc, we’re on time. Checked the complete stuff to be loaded. In between the work , the helpers checked again to make sure they are loading right stuff. At the end , helpers requested to check if they missed any stuff that has to be loaded. After successful load and confirmation from my end they left for the day.
These guys were on time. Very respectful of myself and my property and did what I told them to do. Very efficient and YES! I would definitely use them again
Awesome group of guys! Family run it seems. Worked with me even though I was still packing. Super quick and worked very patiently around my 2 toddlers. I had way too much stuff and they let me know right away and were able to fill the POD completely and it was packed incredibly well. Totally recommend them and their family!
Timely, very efficient, and congenial! Al did a great job leading the service (unloading uhaul) and communicating well. Overall would definitely recommend.
They did a great job, I was worried the container would not fit all my stuff but they were great in stacking and made sure there was space for everything! They were very fast as well!
Omar n Kevin were 1st class. Knew totally what they were doing; committed, dedicated and very professional. Better than I could have ever expected. Would strongly recommend them to anyone.
I'm in awe of what they managed to accomplish! I will definitely use them again for any future moving. They were all incredibly nice and friendly, too!
The moving team was wonderful! They were fast, made sure nothing was broken and offered the best way to move an item. Great, hard workers who did an amazing job!!!
Very fast and packed the POD perfectly. They treated my stuff better than I would. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend or use again if I am ever back in the area.
Alex and Phil did an excellent job. They were prompt, polite and worked very hard to unload the entire truck in two hours. I would not hesitate to use Eric’s Moving and Delivery Service again!
These guys were AMAZING! They were efficient, considerate, cheerful, and non judgmental. Very pleased. Fantastic experience !! Would certainly hire again!
