Response: Thanks we are thinking of renting a Uhaul which will cost us about 3k. $5,200 is out of our budget my husband tells me. Thank you for your bid! (11/1/2009)
Question: Hello, I have a 40 foot enclosed gooseneck trailer set up for moving, e-track on the floor,dozens of tie off points on the walls, soft ride axles, several dozen clean moving blankets and dollies. My trailer has appx. 1900 cu. ft. of usable storage space and can carry up to 9000 pounds. If you think all of your household items will fit(and they should) I would be willing to transport your belongings in the $3300-$3500 range if you were to provide plenty of help with the loading and unloading. How much flexability do you have with your dates? If you have any questions please send me an e-mail. Thanks for your time, Ken (11/1/2009)
Response: Hi Ken, We are moving the 1st or 2nd week of Dec. 09. There is not much flex in that date range. I will talk to my husband. Is your rate a flats rate - includes no gas, etc.? (11/2/2009)
Response: Thanks for the quick reply. Yes, my rate will be all inclusive. It will be up to you to decide whether all of your belongings will fit into the trailer. When you know for sure the date you are wanting to move just let me know and I will see if I am available. I am heading to Triangle VA. in a week or so and the following week I will be in Alanta GA. On this site everyone tries to book a few weeks out so that we may find a back haul and with communition limited to e-mails it is very difficult to get anybody to commit. Thanks again for the reply, Ken (11/2/2009)
Response: If we can agree to $3,300 for the 40ft trailer (our stuff = 12,000 lbs - based on 40ft we should more than ok). Do you agree? We would load on Nov 30th and need our stuff in Bolivia NC by Dec 4th or 5th. Is that doable. And, i see you are 40% up front that is fine. Also, can you provide proof of your insurance to me before we agree to a deal? Do you need my phone # to work out to remaining details? (11/2/2009)
Response: Thanks for the reply.I would be willing to split the difference with you to $3400 if we can work everything out. I can't pickup that soon, I have a delivery to make on either Dec.5th or 6th. I wouldn't be able to get to Utah until Dec. 10-11 at the earliest. I will have been gone from my home for several weeks and I have many things to do before winter sets in for good. Also my weight limit will be 9000 lbs. My axles cost more than $3300 each and I can not afford to damage my trailer. If you can push your pickup date to later in the second week of Dec. we might be able to work this out. We can not exchange phone numbers until after a bid has been accepted. My truck insurance is 100-300-100. Let me know your thoughts on this, Ken (11/2/2009)
Response: I know we have 11-12,000 lbs of stuff we have the pound estimates from our last move. So this won't work. Thanks for getting back to me so fast. (11/2/2009)

Question: Why don't I price a 28' semi trai;er and you load/unload and do own insurance?...If we wrap and load then our cargo insurance covers but if you load it no one can insure but you...Also you show $5,100 and change as max but canceled for bid to high...This inventory for truck,28' semi trailer fuel gear,pads,load/unload is easily that for me but I can see what I can do if you want to load/unload etc...Mark (11/4/2009)
Question: The other thing about this inventory is no small , medium or large boxes and that will change your price as a flat fee bid of $3,000 can change anyway when your inventory changes...You should reverify your list and estimated box count fyi so you have no surprises nor the service provider like me when I bid...Mark (11/4/2009)
Question: i don't see you any boxes on this list & the list it's to short for 5br we charge only $0.55 pr lb (11/4/2009)
Question: MILAGE = 2,272.00 PRICE = $1,670.00 MOVERS2 =$1,000.00 FULL INS = $530.00 INCLUSIVE PRICE = $3,200 DISCOUNT = $370.00 FUEL & TAXES = $170.00 FINAL PRICE = $3,000.00 HOW DOES THIS SOUND TO YOU? (11/4/2009)
Response: This sounds pretty good, Malcolm. Thanks for the breakdown. As a veteran of many moves following jobs, I have been presented with (and successfully disputed) "extra charge" quotes that movers have cited after they've loaded the truck (e.g., toll fees and "extra weight" charges). If you anticipate anything like this, please disclose now so we can avoid any confusion. Also, we can have extra bodies on hand for about 4 hours for loading and unloading assistance, particularly with the heavy stuff. I'm considering the need for extra insurance on a couple of items, too. If there are no "extra charges" to contend with, and you're comfortable with the load size, I'd be willing to review a contract from you for the fixed price of $3,000, with check deposit of 40% up front and the balance paid in cash following the successful unloading of the truck in NC. I would like to be sure we can nail down the dates for load and unload, with unload no later than December 4th or 5th. - Thanks! (11/4/2009)
Response: There will be no extra charges I have givin you a bid that will be a binding contract once accepted. And it includes all insurance possible. Tolls and everything are already included. There is no extra insurance i can give you since i have already included it in the package. the extra loaders will be helpful and great. We would like a pick up between 11/20-25 with delivery on or before 12/2 once bid is accepted i will be more than happy to send you by fax a copy of our contracts bill of ladin. we do not accept checks only postal money orders cash or credit (11/4/2009)
Response: Okay, Malcolm. All sounds great, with the exception of the dates for pick-up. We'll have extended family in our house coming in from out of state until the day after Thanksgiving, which falls on 11/26 this year. So, we can't really pack-up and clear out until 11/28 or 11/29, making potential delivery by 12/5-6. Possible? (11/4/2009)
Response: Very well i can have truck at your pick up on 11/28 with delivery on 12/2 ? (11/4/2009)
Response: Okay. Great. We can be there on 12/2 to receive, or a bit later if you need to push a bit later in the week. If there is a contract for signature, please send via email (or, fax to[phone number removed] ), I will sign and send back, and accept the bid via uShip, too. - Thanks! (11/4/2009)
