Plant & Aggriculture Listing Information
  • Several large houseplants
  • Item Description: I have one very tall house plant that is 93 inches tall, but it only weighs 30 pounds. I have another plant that is 45 inches wide and 61 inches tall--it weighs about 40 pounds. The last big plant is about 50 inches tall by 15 inches wide, and it weighs about 35 pounds. There are also about twenty small plants that I can box up.
  • Special Handling: Since they are plants, they can't be frozen, or be in boxes for more than three days. I'm in a first floor apartment. I will be moving them from Sacramento, CA to Redmond WA. The moving company won't take them, and the tall ones are too tall to fit in the car.
  • Packaging:Right now they aren't packaged, but I could put them in boxes. Could I get a quote for them packed, and if they were to be packed?
  • Weight:30 lbs

Additional Information: The big plants to be moved are the three big ones in the background of this photo. Report a Violation

Questions for this shipment: 

Question: Hello, my van is 5ft. high inside, so the two shorter plants would fit. I could transport your plants if the taller one could be placed at an angle and suspended with something between the seats. I could arrive at your place probably the day before Thanksgiving, but possibly later, around the dates you specified in your ad. I will have a one or two day stopover at a friend's in Ashland, OR, where the plants could be unloaded to have some light. Let me know soon if this will work, and I will bid. (11/15/2007)
Response: Hi there Maalanga, The tall plant could just lie on its side with some cushioning--that would be totally fine. Would your van be long enough for that, since the tall plant is nearly 8 feet tall? I appreciate you being willing to give them some sun during the stopover. Thank you for asking, Teri (11/15/2007)
