Lorain County Moving Rules, Weather & Terrain

Lorain County is reached by I-71 and SR 83 from our base, and we route around Turnpike and I-90 traffic to keep Elyria and Avon moves on schedule.

Who Sets the Rules in Lorain County

Cities and villages in Lorain County handle their own street and curb rules at city or village hall; townships answer to their trustees and road departments, county roads to the Lorain County engineer, and state routes such as I-90 and I-80 (Ohio Turnpike) to ODOT. Elyria is the county seat.

Weather & Terrain

Wind off Lake Erie is the main stressor in Lorain County: gusts along the shoreline make lifting mattresses and box springs into a truck slower, and lake-effect bands can stall I-90. Lorain County runs from Lake Erie shoreline neighborhoods in Avon Lake, Lorain and Sheffield Lake to newer subdivisions in Avon and North Ridgeville and farm country around Wellington.

Licensing & Paperwork

Moves that stay inside Ohio are regulated by the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio (PUCO); moves that cross state lines fall under the FMCSA. YouMove is licensed and insured, gives a written estimate before work starts, and provides a certificate of insurance to any building or HOA that asks.
