Movers for Kendall County and the towns around Yorkville

How far Amenity's crews travel around Yorkville

Amenity’s crews take local moves anywhere in this area, from the towns bordering Yorkville out to Minooka, and they handle moves beyond it through Wheaton World Wide Moving. The 12 town pages on this site run from Oswego, about 5 miles straight-line from downtown Yorkville, to Minooka, about 17 miles away. Amenity’s own website has local-moving pages for several of the same towns, including Minooka, Oswego, Montgomery, Plano and Sugar Grove.

Distance from the warehouse matters as much as distance from Yorkville, because Illinois hourly estimates include travel time. Amenity’s warehouse is in Plainfield, about 10 miles east of Yorkville, so east-side towns such as Aurora and Oswego sit about 5 miles from it, while Sandwich and Newark are about 20.

Under the Illinois Commerce Commission’s consumer guide, a move under 50 miles, or one entirely within Cook, DuPage, Kane, Kendall, Lake, McHenry and Will counties, may be billed by workers and hours. Grundy and DeKalb aren’t on that county list, but every town here is well under 50 miles from Yorkville, so a Minooka or Sandwich move can still be billed by the hour on distance alone.

Fox River towns, the I-88 side and the rural west and south

The towns around Yorkville fall into four groups by direction, and each group brings its own drive and housing mix.

• Upriver along the Fox. North Aurora, Aurora, Montgomery and Oswego lie northeast of Yorkville, up the Fox River. Apart from Plainfield itself, they are the closest group to the warehouse, and they include Aurora, by far the largest city here at 179,898 residents in the Census Bureau’s 2020–2024 estimates.
• North toward I-88. Sugar Grove lies due north, where the I-88 and Illinois 47 interchange became full access in December 2019, and Big Rock is to the northwest. Both are in Kane County.
• West. Plano, about 6 miles away, and Sandwich, about 10, sit west of Yorkville. Sandwich crosses from DeKalb County into Kendall.
• South and southeast. South of Yorkville is mostly unincorporated Kendall County land, with the village of Newark about 12 miles southwest. Shorewood, about 15 miles southeast in Will County, and Minooka, mostly in Grundy County, round out the list.

For a farmhouse or a home on acreage, the estimator checks the driveway surface and length and where a truck can turn around, because those decide which truck can reach the door.

What changes from one town to the next

Parking, trash and utility rules are set by each city or village, so the details that matter on moving day change at the town line. A few examples from towns on this page:

• Yorkville bans parking on City streets after more than 2 inches of snow, until 24 hours after it stops, and its hauler, Groot, takes one large item under 50 lb per week (city refuse page).
• In Minooka, Homewood Disposal Services collects trash, and one bulk item, such as a couch, chair, mattress or table, goes out free each week; extra items need a prepaid sticker (village page).
• Homes in unincorporated Kendall County, outside any city or village, hire their own trash hauler.
• Yorkville starts and stops water, sewer and garbage with one form filed at least 5 days ahead. Other towns use their own forms and timelines, so check with your village hall.

County lines cut through towns, too. July 2025 Census estimates put 12,419 of Montgomery‘s residents in Kendall County and 9,559 in Kane, and about 6,500 people in Aurora live on the Kendall County side. That decides which county offices handle your records, not how the move itself runs.

Kendall County beyond Yorkville

Kendall County had an estimated 145,470 residents in July 2025, and Yorkville, the county seat, accounts for 26,730 of them, according to Census Bureau estimates. Oswego’s Kendall County population is larger still, at about 39,950. The county also takes in Plano, Newark, the small villages of Lisbon, Millbrook and Plattville, each under 300 residents, and parts of Joliet, Aurora, Montgomery, Plainfield, Minooka, Sandwich and Millington.

Amenity’s crews cover all of it, including farmhouses and homes in unincorporated areas. The Kendall County moving page has county-wide notes, and Yorkville’s own rules and housing are on the main page for movers in Yorkville.
