Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
We moved long-distance NJ to WY, and then WY to PA a year later. I have control issues so it was a little hard for me when they were all TOUCHING MY STUFF.
Certainly worth not moving some stuff up and down stairs, though, or at least that's what my husband will tell you.
Worth every penny for sure. Still tramatic!
What's the alternative? I mean, other than not moving long-distance, which, duh. Never not an alternative.
One-way rental truck. We moved from San Antonio to KC that way.
One-way rental truck.
I can happily say I'm never doing that. Not in love with the idea of driving anything bigger than my Jetta over long distances. Not even my Jetta with a trailer. I have maneuverability issues.
One-way rental truck. We moved from San Antonio to KC that way.
Between the cost of the truck and gas ($1000), plus my time and money on the road, there's no way that would be better than the ($2500) I paid my Mayflowers movers to move me from MD to CA.
I'm still traumatized about how much it cost to have long-distance movers. Never again!
Both my cross-country moves were subsidized. One reason to go for-profit!
We had a $500 moving subsidy for that move and got under it.
I was fully intending to tip our movers $50 each on account of the stairs, but I downgraded it to $20 when they tried to fleece me (they claimed that the stairs weren't on the work order and said I'd have to pay them extra, in spite of the fact that it said "4th floor walk-up" on EVERY FREAKING PAGE).
Has anyone ever worked as a temp for Manpower?
I moved 9 times in 15 years, twice across state lines, and always moved myself, with a Penske truck and a little help from my friends. Except for this last move, when I actually had enough money to hire a moving company. If I ever move again, I'm hiring people.
