    Thats a good way to do it have someone else do the heavy lifting. I was going to pay someone to do my last move but I decided to be cheap and do it myself.

    No, but they have coin snack and drink machines in the lounge. I was grateful for those!

    Ya, I have moved several times on the cheap since college days, different jobs, etc... and hated it... nice that they pay for the moves as I would have a very hard time justifying the costs of that...

    Hoping for just one more move, and over a period of time too, and then enjoy the hills an never worry about moving ever again!!!!

    Works for me... it's just north of us so it would be a nice option to hit it before/after hometime.... but we will see what the powers that be think.

    That's a trap, I hope you didn't fall for it and ask him to show you the bite.

    The trick to moving is to sell, dump or give most of your stuff away before you move. Last time I moved I got it down to 2 suitcases and a carry on bag.

    Only 6 hours for them to start loading . There is still hope to make delivery on time.

    Darn Good Advice!!!!

    But just where the heck were you 20+ years ago when I started moving crap from State to State.... would have been so much cheaper to donate to a local thrift store and buy new when I needed it.... LOL

    Ho Ho Ho.... Christmas is upon us!!!
    (Or at least the trees are ready... LOL)

    Did we haul trees last Christmas?
    If we did, I guess I never got one.

    The delay isn't your fault so I wouldn't worry about on time delivery. just let dm know.
