Questions for this shipment: 

Question: quick question. is there help loading and unloading at both ends. would a 15 foot box truck work. i have a indiana trip planned the 13th and 14th i could pick up this week 8th or 9th. let me know what price i can book this at. i carry blankets,cardboard for seperating pieces,straps,and tarps. let me know what i have to do to get the job (9/6/2009)
Response: Kevin- It may be possible for me to get help at both ends, and I think a 15 ft truck should work fine. A few questions for you: Are you DOT compliant to cross state moves? Are you by yourself, or do you have other help? Have you moved a piano before? What price were you thinking? I know it's now tight on the dates and will log back on when I return from an appointment to see if you could respond. Thanks! Amy (9/8/2009)
Response: by myself. $1650. no dot my truck is 10,000 gvw (gross vehicle weight) don't need DOT if it's 10,000 lbs or less. never moved piano. my truck has no ramp or lift gate but if guys can lift in it can be strapped down. i have another run end of october lined up if this works let me know (9/8/2009)
Response: I think I'll need to wait for now; but possibly send you a message about Oct. later. Thanks, Amy (9/9/2009)
