Questions for this shipment: 

Question: Hello mover, were headed to Memphis, TN on Jan 1, 2009 with enclosed trailer (half) loaded and could easily stop in to complete your move, if interested. Please reply and well submit competitive bid. Thanks, Kyle(Alamotransport) (12/31/2008)
Response: You know, that sounds great, but I'm in Nashville and my friend is at the house in Tishomingo and I can't get down there that quick to meet you there, although my friend would be there. I haven't boxed up the records/books yet and don't have boxes for them. If, given these things, you want to go ahead & bid officially, that'd be great & I'll call my friend. I don't know how big your truck/trailer is; do you think half space would fit?? Thanks for your question! Beth Causey (12/31/2008)
Response: Thanks for prompt reply. We will have plenty of room for items you have listed. However, need to know about how many books/records you have to be boxed etc, so as to bring sufficient quantities to accomplish you packing needs. Check wity your Tishimingo, MS housemate to confirm their availability in the evening Jan 1, 2009. If you respond positively, will submit our bid. Thanks, Kyle(Alamotransport) (12/31/2008)
Response: Hey Kyle - I'm sorry, but availability for someone to be there tomorrow just won't work. I really appreciate your willingness to act so quickly! To answer your question, I think 25-30 boxes for records/books would be about right. Please let me know if you would be available later in Jan if you decide to place a bid. Thanks again for your prompt action. This time, though, it was just a little too prompt for me to accept! Beth (12/31/2008)
Response: Beth, Jan 15 and later just won't work this time, as were leaving out on a (nine-leg) trip (TX-TN-OH-PA-MN-CO-WA-CA-TX) and picking up your things on Jan 1-2 would have occurred on our outbound Leg #3 of the trip. Finally, were expecting to be home before January 15, 2009. If tomorrow can be made to work, please advise. Otherwise, here's Hoping you have a great year 2009. God Bless, Kyle(Alamotransport) (1/1/2009)
Response: Thanks for trying! Beth (1/1/2009)
Question: Ms. Beth; if you can confirm a serious interest, I'll get our bid in today and hopefully get you confirmed, as space in our trailer appears gone tonight, prior to our departure Jan 1, 2009. If you can provide answers to previous questions this afternoon I'll submit formal bid lower than your current $485 low bid. Looking forward to serving your transport needs. Kyle (Alamotransport) (12/31/2008)
Response: Thanks for your interest! Sorry it didn't work out this time. Beth (1/1/2009)
Question: Still awaiting your reply, hopefully will be received tonight, as were departing in the morning. Kyle(Alamotransport) (12/31/2008)
Response: Would pick-up date of Jan 15th, 16th, or 17th be possible for you? If so, please place a bid for me to consider. Thanks! Beth (12/31/2008)
Question: hello Beth, Im Shannon with Alamo, Kyle said I might can help w your move. I will be coming from dallas to Louisanna in a week or so ,I let you know the exact dates as soon as the other customers confirm. I am sure you want your fine cherry to be wrapped in our nice clean furniture pads with stretch wrap. I have a clean truck and trailer. Your items qill be my only load going up to nashville. I also have extra tape and boxes and other packing material, thus i can help pack up files and whatever else needs to be packed up. I did submit a bid of 550, this include first class moving and handling of your items.Includes taking apart and reassemble, stretch wrap and pads with straps to secure the load during transport. You indicated you wanted 3-4K insurance coverage. This is no such thing as moving insurance, i mean it doesnt protect you and its not worth much. Lets say a mover drops and breaks ur tv.if the tv weighs 100 lbs then you will only collect .68 cent per pound,68.00 for a 300 tv. (1/2/2009)
Response: Hi Shannon- It's looking like the best dates for me would be Jan 15,16,17 for pick-up. I will need 25-30 boxes for your help in packing vinyl records/books. As I am in Nashville now, I need to schedule so I can meet you in Tishomingo, MS for packing, loading, p/u. Let me know if you think scheduling will work. Beth (1/2/2009)
Response: ok sounds great i will plan my plano tx load to new orleans for the 14th and i will unload on the 15th in louisana then i can be there to pack and load you up on the 16th and if i run late then on the 17th and we will go straight up to nashville and unload if all works for you im ready. shannon ps do u want to call baker intrl ,i can give it to you when you book (1/2/2009)
Response: Uship says your account is suspended and your bid is not active. What's up? I was ready to accept your bid but need to know what's the problem. Beth (1/3/2009)
Question: Thank you for letting me know so quickly we appreiciate that.....Pianoman... if any changes within next couple hours just let me know as i monitor this frequently.... (1/3/2009)
Response: Sorry couldn't work out for today I hope we can do business. Please re-bid if you can p/u jan 15, 16, or 17th. I'd like to use you! Many thanks Beth (1/3/2009)
Response: got your request i will have to wait and see on my return back this way thanks and ill keep you posted pianoman..... (1/3/2009)
