Looking for some advise on soundproofing windows.

My place is at the end of a residential street with a commercial sidestreet on the south side of the house. The sidestreet sees lots of loud traffic in the middle of the night (delivery trucks, garbage/recycling pickup) and it's disrupting my sleep.

Based on my research, there are a few options to add soundproofing but it starts to get expensive quickly. It's also hard to know how much soundproofing is enough (at some point I assume you reach diminishing returns where the window is more soundproof than the wall, though I'm not sure where that line is).

- Add a double cell blackout blind such as the Hunter Douglas Duette (questionable how effective this would be but probably a good starting point)
- Retrofit existing double pane windows with a laminate soundproofing layer (The Glass Guru seems to offer this service)
- Replace windows with a more soundproof + energy efficient model, likely triple pane (don't really even know where to start)
- Add a soundproof interior window such as a bQuiet (extremely expensive)

Any other options I'm missing? Anyone have experience with this kind of problem or advise on where to start / how far to go?
