Grandmas decided the traveling back and forth from NY to Florida each year is too much for her so she has sold her little mobile home down there, will be up in NY year round, There are alot of medium, size boxes packed and ready to go with this move, THe boxes are the kind you buy at Staples for putting files in etc. . Several large floor fans., Everything has been moved out to the back room (Except the couch) and stacked neatly waiting to be moved, it is ground level, Step right out the door into the driveway and onto your truck etc,
WE ARE VERY FLEXABLE!
Most of the furniture has been sold with the mobile home,,EXAMPLE IF AT THE LAST MINUTE THE DRYER WONT FIT ON YOUR TRUCK WE WILL JUST LEAVE IT!! We would really love to have Grandmas 1994 Ford Escort wagon shipped up along with her other items,, she hates to leave it in Florida, BUT WE WILL CONSIDER OFFERS WITH MOVING THE CAR AND ONES WITHOUT THE CAR.We could probably have one or two men in Silver Springs to help load up and we can have three men in NY to unload. Unloading in Corning NY up two little steps , or can use handicapped ram

Questions for this shipment: 

Question: Can a semi get into both locations? I have over 23 years exp, am a fully licensed and insured household goods carrier, thx ron (10/15/2006)
Response: A semi should have no problem at either location, Pick up in a mobile home park and drop off private home. easy access, only 2 miles off RT 86, (rt 17)Had a semi in the drive way before, Would the Ford Escort wagon be able to go along in your truck? It drives well but not usually very far or fast so we do not want to push it by driving it up here, Thanks for your quick response! (10/15/2006)

Response: Thank you for your offer, I am checking with my brother who is down there in Florida, There might be less stuff left than I realized, alot should fit inside car. I did forget to list a small, take apart Rascal-like handicap scooter which will be going. We need to keep this as reasonable as possible, Our family left NY two weeks ago today in Grandmas full size van pulling her 10 by 5 foot enclosed trailer, to bring her stuff back up here. Tranny went in VA, now 2 weeks later and $1,000 motel and rental car etc espenses and $2100 in tranny repair we are back in NY . Drove van and trailer home from repair shop in VA believing it was all fixed. Soon realized it was not!! Van tranny only has 3 and 4th gear,. no 1st or 2nd gear. Even after the vans tranny is finally fixed correctly we have decided not to attempt the trip again,. not much money left for the move! We will figure out how high we can go and post it tomorrow, Thanks!! thank you (10/16/2006)

Question: plz send me email with your target price. maybe I can combine shipments if you have a little time to get it moved. thx ron (10/16/2006)
Response: Sorry it took me so long to reply, computer trouble, We need to find a way to make this move for around $1,000, even if it means we make the trip with the van and trailer once again once the tranny is finally fixed the right way, We'd rather have you do it.. can you come close to that? Thank you Laura (10/17/2006)

Response: WE will have people to load and unload but need to keept the price near $1,000.,. anychance of you being able to meet that price? Many thanl (10/17/2006)
Question: tell you what; for $1200.00 you load, unload. we will give you enough space for car. we will install our second floor in the trailer (this is called a deck) that will be as long as your car and as wide as the trailer and aprox 4'6" tall you can load what ever you can fit in that space plus your grandma's car. you need to be a little flexible on your load date, It would not be no more than 3 weeks and as soon as 2 days from now. this is the best I can do for you. ps your car should take anywhere from 15' to 20' need to know make and model to tell you exactly how much room. inside height is 9' floor to ceiling. thxs ron (10/17/2006)

Question: Hello shipper.. I can pick up your items this weekend or monday for 900.00....If interested let me know and I'll place a bid..Also that without the car.. Thansk Dale (10/21/2006)
Response: Hello dale, Thank you for your bid. I have two quetions, a little confused, Is the bid for $900 including all the stuff AND the car or is it $900 for ONLY the stuff, no car? If we accept your bid would you have someone there to help load? I might only have one person there to load but 3 in NY to unload, Thank you Laura (10/21/2006)
Question: Hello laura..I can help load...ANd the 900.00 is for the all the items they have not the car.But If i can fit your car in the trailer...We can work something out... Thanks Dale (10/21/2006)
Question: hi again, price is for you load/unload you can usually get really inexpensive "day labor at your local home depot" our driver could help you but would be an addittional $200.00 and you would pay that to the driver. I would need to know this upfront so I can tell driver and he is not surprised. thx ron (10/21/2006)
Question: Hi Laura, I can take the CAR & ALL the stuff you want to send to NY for $1000.00, I can help whomever you have in Florida to load the other stuff in the trailer. If interested let me know and I will bid that amount. Thanks (10/21/2006)
Response: Hi Your offer sounds very fair and sounds like you can provide us with just the kind of service we need! Please make the bid for $1000 and I will accept it and then I will be able to email you privately my brothers phone number in Orlando and email him yours. Mhy brother Gordon says that he will try to get many of the boxes into the car to make the move easier, He also says that the only item that will really need more tjan one person plus the hand truck is the couch which hopefully you will have room for, I am looking forward to getting his all aranged and the items safey here in NY. Many thanks!! Laura and family (10/22/2006)
