The car is on blocks in my side lot. Can you still take it?

Say so on the call. A car that doesn't roll needs different equipment, and we'll confirm the pickup once we know.

Is West Pullman the same as Kensington?

Not quite. Kensington grew up around 115th Street, and the Kensington/115th commercial corridor runs along West Pullman's northern edge.

Can you pick up the same day in West Pullman?

Often, yes. We confirm the time when we call.

Driveways, side lots and garages

West Pullman runs south from 115th Street to the Calumet River and Riverdale, with the former Illinois Central tracks on the east and Ashland Avenue, Blue Island and Calumet Park on the west. Much of it is single-family bungalows and frame houses with driveways and side lots, which makes for straightforward pickups.

The cars that need a heads-up are the ones that have been sitting: on blocks, on four flat tires, or wedged behind another car. Put it in the call. It changes which truck comes, and we’d rather know before the driver gets there.

Roads and stops to give as landmarks

Halsted Street and 119th Street cross the middle of the area, with 115th along the north edge. The Metra Electric Blue Island branch has four stations inside West Pullman: Racine, State Street, Stewart Ridge and West Pullman. Main-line Metra trains stop at Kensington, just across the northern boundary, and the Kensington/115th Street commercial corridor runs along that edge. Cottage Grove Avenue is being extended south from 115th Street, so expect roadwork there.
