Questions for this shipment: 

Question: Is it possible to pick this up next week? What is your target price? (6/20/2006)
Response: Yes, it's possible to pick up next week. I'm trying to get an idea of how much it costs to ship the boxes versus other options... any additional information would be greatly appreciated. (6/20/2006)
Question: Am I correct there is a total of 60 boxes? With the weight that is stated per box there sounds like a total of 1000 lbs. UPS would charge at least $1.00 per pound plus additional fuel charges. Boxes also would be subject to damage if the breakable items are not packed with bubble wrap, popcorn etc. adaquate for shipping. Glassware would need to be packed correctly of course,yet we would take the boxes in a 53 foot moving van with air-ride with less handling than UPS or any package carrier.What is your target price ? Once I have an idea, I will place a bid. (6/20/2006)
Response: Yes, there are approx. 60 boxes and I'm guessing that the max. weight would be 1000 lbs. the boxes range in weight from 5 to 25 lbs. I purchased std. U-Haul boxes so that they will stack and store correctly. Needless to say, contents are wrapped in bubble wrap & paper - they should ship OK. I would like to keep the shipping under $1000, but we can discuss options. Thanks! (6/20/2006)
Question: We are in New York loading now, we could probably pick up your shipment between the 26th - 30th. By the end of the day we will place a bid accordingly. (6/21/2006)
Response: Sounds great, we're just outside of D.C. I appreciate your quick response. (6/21/2006)
Question: A few more questions before I place a bid. Is there easy access for a big truck to load? Also at the unload is it easy to get in and out of with a big truck? Will there be any help provided at load and unload? (6/21/2006)
Response: That's a good question. The pickup address in MD has limited access with a narrow driveway. However, several big trucks have been able to pull into the driveway if they kept the truck near the street. Most delivery vehicles - such as UPS trucks pull up onto sidewalk. As far as the AZ address, there's no problems. Everything is flat and wide, no restrictions. (6/21/2006)
