Howdy ![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
I am looking for help in how to move a bunch of furniture a few thousand miles for the least cost (1st) and hassle (2nd). I will tell you my current plan, and then all the experts and experienced peeps please let me know where I'm going wrong![Roll eyes :rolleyes: :rolleyes:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Everything is currently in a storage shed up east (in the US). I'm going to fly up there, load it into a U-Haul, drive it to another state (about 900 miles), drop half of it off (that's the tricky bit), load the smaller amount into a smaller U-Haul and drive it another 1,000ish miles to the final destination.
Does anyone have any reasonably productive
comments or suggestions on how to do this better? I'm doing it on someone else's dime as a favour, so I want to keep the cost at an absolute minimum. Is there anything cheaper than U-Haul? Is it worth it to change out to the smaller truck at the first drop off point? Is it cheaper to split the stuff up at the point of origin and hire professional movers to get the stuff to the two destinations?
Any helpful hints or anecdotal experience appreciated![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
