Question: Hello; Would a 26 ft box truck be enough to handle this move, or would you need two of them. 5500 foot home is a large one, but without a detailed list of furniture, we cannot give an accurate quote. Thanks. I have family in Loxahatchee. (7/27/2009)
Response: It would take two and we want someone to also do the packing. (7/27/2009)
Response: Ok, and thank you we will bid soon as we can. (7/28/2009)
Question: can it be done between the 10 and 12th? What is your budget for full service? (8/2/2009)
Response: the 10th or 12th would be fine and we have a budget of about 10,000.00

Response: Hi DC thx for the info, U-Ship will not let contact info be exchanged till a bid is accepted and you pay them there fee, The U-Ship fee on this is about $1200 and that comes out of my bid amount. If we get the ball rolling I can do this, I have a 48' trailer that I move houses in, its much easier then a truck because its so low to the ground, its also carpeted, I can load on the 11th and 12th and deliver on the 18th, Are the appliances going? any large tool box, piano, safe, riding mower, motorcycle? Are all the smalls packed? Let me know ASAP so I can book a load comming back. Thx Alex TheTransporters (8/3/2009)
Response: We are ready to except the bid after dinner, but says expired.

Question: My bid expired again, I am trying to get everything lined up to do this move for you, I have stuff booked coming back from there so would like to get this job but need to get it set up, so I can order the boxes and bubble wrap for your smalls. Let me know to rebid and once accepted we can talk on the phone, thx Alex TheTransporters (8/5/2009)
Response: We are in Alabama headed to Florida to get things going, We will be there friday. Rebid on Friday and we will except it. (8/6/2009)
Response: Tomorrow is going to be cutting it too close, It would be best if you could do it before 5pm today and Paypal the deposit because I need to order the packing supplies for your move and they take 2 weekdays days to get to FL, so if we are going to start packing Monday I need to order the boxes,bubble wrap and blankets today, that stuff cost almost $3k. thx Alex TheTransporters (8/6/2009)
Question: morning, I went ahead and ordered the boxes and bubble wrap for the move and will talk to you on the phone once bid is accepted:) thx Alex TheTransporters (8/7/2009)
Response: I got stuck in Atlanta over the weekend, but will arrive home tomorrow afternoon (8/9/2009)
Response: hehe ATL can be nice to be "stuck" in..I use to live there. we can still do the move but I need to go ahead and get my bid accepted so I can book a load back, All the blankets,boxes,tape,and bubble wrap came in and is in my trailer. Let me know when you will be on for 5 min so I can bid. Thx Alex TheTransporters (8/9/2009)
Response: Okay, I am home and ready to move. Just 2 questions my wife has.
1. Are you insured and bonded? Is our stuff insured and how much?
2. She is a little scared to pay 2500.00 up front. She wants to pay you 5000.00 when you show up to load and 5000.00 when you show up to unload.
We are ready to let you start in the morning or when ever.
When will it arrive in Idaho?
DC (8/10/2009)
Response: 500K insurance included, I payed about 3K out of my pocket for the blankets,boxes, and bubble wrap, but that will be fine, I can be there first thing on the 12th and it will take 2 days to load, delivery will be the 18th, bidding now and we can talk on the phone, thx Alex TheTransporters (8/10/2009)
Response: Need answer before I except the bid on my last question.
DC (8/10/2009)
Response: the payment? that is fine (8/10/2009)
Response: No, the one about how many people to pack and load as we have a lot of stuff. The 5500 square foot house, 3 car garage half full of stuff. Just seems like it would take more than 2 days.
DC (8/10/2009)
Response: sorry, I did not see that ?. It will be 2 of us and how ever long it takes is fine, I have moved/packed Antiques and houses for 20 years now, I am good at it, hehe. I don't like anyone doing it but me if I am responsible for it (8/10/2009)
Response: Okay, just want to be clear cause we have a lot of stuff to pack, dishes, pots and pans, movies, computer stuff and so on. The garage is partly packed, but will also need some more. Do you also pack our clothes and everything? I am headed back to Idaho to be there when you get there and just want to make sure this covers everything.
DC (8/10/2009)
Response: yep all of it, even the food in the pantry, hehe (8/10/2009)
Response: One more question. Hate being a pain in the butt. LOL ! Then I will accept.
What if you trailer won't hold it all? (8/10/2009)
Response: I had mentioned in my first few responses, it will be the 48' trailer and a 26' truck...if it still wont fit I can pull another trailer behind that truck too! (8/10/2009)
Response: Okay, and all this is included in the price, right? (8/10/2009)
Response: yep..all included in bid price plus 2 boxes of oreos. thx alex
