Question:

1/21/2010

Where is this tub going exactly? We just moved one from Va to L I, ny. What an experience and the customer was thrilled with us. When did you want this done?

Response: The tub would be going on an outdie pation which is underneath the proch on the back of my house. It is ground level. I am flexible on dates but was hoping for Feb 61/21/2010

Response: : If you viewed our feedback would 300.00 suit you? we would have 2 men on our truck. We will do this with our 16ft box truck. Are you positive about the size? We just did one that was actually 8 ft square and was 800 lb.1/21/2010

Response: NO I am not sure that is the weight. That was the weight that I was told by the owner. On the price quote....I have received significantly lower quotes from two other movers 1/21/2010

Response: : Were you looking to have this done tomorrow? If the weight is correct we can strap it to the back of our box truck to transport it to you for 230.00. Let us know asap.1/21/2010

Response: No I wont be able to get it until Feb 6th. Thanks1/21/2010

Response: : Check our feedback and let us know if you want a bid from us for that date for 230.00?1/21/2010

Response: Hi! I am def interested in you providing services for that date. I have a couple of questions: I am not 100% sure about the weight of the hot tub. I went to see it last night and asked the owner and he stated that he really has no clue and he was guessing. The size I provided is accurate. I have never moved or owned a hot tub so I am not sure of the weight. Does this impact anyuthing? The bid that you provided...Is that to drop off on the patio or curbside? And lastly the man that I am getting the hot tub from is very concerned about his lawn getting messed up. I told him I would ask if you thought anything wouild be damaged during the move. He states that his back gate is 8' wide Thanks! I look forwrad to hearing from you 1/22/2010

HI I have a couple of questions.... When I listed this the current ownere said 250lbs after speaking with him he is unsure of the weight. I would assume a hot tub would be more than 250lbs. Doe sthis affect your quote? 2) Does this quote include moving the hot tub into its place on the patio or is it curb side service? and lastly the cuurent owner is VERY concerned about his grass being torn up. Should he be? Thanks! 15/25/10 9:15 AM ENDDELIVERY (9) Hello my name is Eddie and want to address each of your concerns. The weight is a slight difference but not my main concern. You are now talking about a different type of service, that i assure you I will complete for you at an additional cost. The removal and then placement situation needs to be discussed further. So, I will now request that you describe to me where the tub is and access to it? Next, where is is going at your place? Descriptive is best. I will work with you not rob you. If you accept the bid price I offered, then I will add an additional , nominal fee. 19/25/10 9:19 AM Will H. The hot tub is currently located at the current owners home. It is in his back yard. The hot tub would be moved to my house on a concrete patio, which is in the back on my house. This is at ground level 27/25/10 9:27 AM ENDDELIVERY (9) I am going to access an additional fee. The type of service is very different from the one you descibed about just moving the tub. Again, I will take care of the job no problem, and add on 70.00 so, it is up to you.

I have a couple of questions.... I do not know the weight of this hot tub. When I first asked the current owner he said 250lbs but at a later time said honestly that he has no clue but the size is very accurate. Does this impact your bid? The second is does the quote include moving the hot tub into place or curb side service? and lastly the person I am getting the hot tub from is very concerned about his lawn getting torn up during the move. Is ther anything that can be done so his lawn deosnt get torn up? The back gate is 8' wide. Thanks! 33/25/10 8:33 AM talax (4) as i said a cast iron tub A bath tub weighs about 250 lbs a hot tub that fits 4-6 people weighs about 800 lbs as far as moving it in to place you CANNOT put this tub on a wooden deck unless the deck is rated to handle this kind of weight if it is going on a concrete pad with a minimum of 6" and the guys you supply can once again help me turn it back over WE should be able to get it pretty close to where it needs to be. [content removed – unrelated to services offered] if your guys can help to keep it in balance the hot tub will be removed on four wheel barrel size tires that is and pushed by the minimum of 3 guys [content removed - Per uShip rules, bids must be all inclusive] 27/25/10 9:27 AM Will H. Sorry about the question. I did not see the additional information that you provided. The hot tub is 99.9% empty. There is very small puddle in it that I can shop vac out prior if necessary. The current owner is disconnecting it from the supply this week. What would be the final price with tolls? 33/25/10 9:33 AM talax (4) tolls for the turnpike run about 20.00 as for the small puddle that should not be a problem. 17/25/10 1:17 PM Will H. OK sounds good. I will have guys (3 friends and myself). Is Saturday Jan 6 good? Do I just accept the bid? 21/25/10 3:21 PM talax (4) just accept the bid and i assume you mean February 6, 2010 that will be fine once you accept the bid and we get closer to the date call me to confirm a time. 41/27/10 5:41 AM Will H. Good morning! I just wanted to let you know that the reason I did not accept the bid is that I am waiting to hear back form the current owner if Feb 6 will work. As soon as he confirms that it will, I will accept the bid. If this date does not work, are you available for Feb 20th? I would definitely like to hire you for the move. Thanks 18/29/10 8:18 AM talax (4) either date would work but ... if for any reason it snows i would not be available i have a snow plow contract and that comes first
