Hi, Matt!
I propose the following conceptual sketch of the moving process.
First, I strongly suggest getting a 24' Budget truck for the cost to
benefit ratio.
Cost:
Total truck cost (rental, tax, insurance, gas) can be as little as under
$60, if moving day is no later than Tuesday 6/24 or Wednesday 6/25. See
attached spreadsheet for details.
Benefit:
Organization - Everything leaves together, moves together, arrives
together, and, most importantly, lands together, not piecemeal.
Ease and speed - Everything (besides fragiles) moves on wheels -no
fitting or lifting into trunks or pickups.
Use of labor - Time shuttling can be better spent packing, and anyone
can pack. Plus, this way is better for esprit de corps.
Secondly, I'll be glad to expedite a smooth load and unload. Also, I can
pick up and return the truck, if y'all would like.
Third, I can provide equipment - pads, dollies, straps, etc.
Consumables, of course, are needed for packing _pronto_, IMHO -boxes,
markers, tape. Is anti-static material needed/ thought worthwhile? ( I
haven't priced it.)
That's the sketch, to be filled in with appropriate details. I'd like
your/anyone's thoughts.
