Assembly tips for Chicago homes
- River North and Lincoln Park high-rise move-ins stack flat-pack the same week as TV mounts — combine into a half-day.
- Two-flat stairwells and narrow greystone halls need careful staging; measure before you buy the tall wardrobe.
- Freeze-thaw winters, lake humidity, and short outdoor-work windows in deep cold — leave heat/AC on; morning slots still win for long assemblies.
