Question: Hi, what is your target price for this move? Please drop me a line back and we'll see if I can work within your budget. Thanks! Steve (9/14/2009)
Response: Hi Steve,
I would like to keep my price, if possible, under two hundred dollars. If I don't get at least a few bids though, I would be willing to negotiate. I had to relocate because I was laid off from my teaching job, so the lower the price, the better. Thanks, Rachl (9/14/2009)
Response: Thanks for the response. I think that most shippers will be bidding around $375-550. My standard for a bed is $287 and then small additional for boxes/bikes. Couple questions: is the bike boxed, and what size are the boxes (3 dimensions)? Steve (9/14/2009)
Response: Hi Steve,
The bike is not boxed, it is a standard size adult bicycle. The boxes are about 3x3x3 and there are 2. I may not ship the bed frame if it will be cheaper. Thanks, Rachel (9/14/2009)
Response: The bed frame doesn't take much space, at all, even if it is a full headboard/rails/etc. It's the boxes and bike, together, the boxes and bike make up about the same cubic footage as the bed (~60 cubic feet). Just being honest I would charge $460, normally, for this move because I work solo/independently. If I determine that I have space left over after all confirmations have been made I can offer you a good deal but it will still be around $375, which will be dependent, also, on having assistance with (un)loading the bed. I will keep an eye out but please keep me posted. If you find a good deal just make sure that they have some feedback on uship. Thanks! Steve (9/14/2009)
Response: Thanks Steve. I'm going to see if I get any bids, but please keep me posted on whether or not you will have room. You may be the lowest I find (for $375). You definitely will have help loading in AZ (the bed is in our friends garage and he can help you) as well as in OH (my boyfriend can help). You will not need to go up any stairs. Thanks again, Rachel (9/14/2009)
Response: I will, and should know by the beginning of next week. Steve (9/14/2009)
Response: Thanks Steve, we really appreciate it! (9/14/2009)
Question: My trucker will be in Los Angeles on the 23 and will be spending a week with his family. I would expect that we could pickup this stuff sometime between 27 and 7(OCT). If your flexible on your pickup/delivery times and dates then we can bid you $250. (9/18/2009)
Response: Hi!
We are pretty flexible with our pick-up dates. And $250 is definitely a price we could work with. It may end up being 4 boxes instead of 3, but they are only 3x3x3. Thanks so much and I hope you will decide to bid. - Rachel (9/18/2009)
