One of our customers bought an art gallery in Chicago. The lease for the current location was ending so he had to move the gallery to a new location. He found a great location right across the street.

When started the process of moving he was stunned at the process. One union to remove the art from the walls. Another union to crate them up. Another union to haul them downstairs. They hauled them to the middle of the street and handed them off to the union for that side of the street. To be un-crated by yet another union and one more to hang them up. Six men to move each painting across the street.

He added up the expected cost of what that would cost and decided to just close the business. He took them down, and hauled them to a new city and opened a new gallery. It was a non union city and the entire move was done easily and cheaply.
