Additional Information: We will be getting 8-16 pieces of furniture from this source now and then will be needing delivery again as soon as it sells. We have a very small shop in Minneapolis and are getting furniture on consignment. We are new and have a very low budget and hope we can find someone who drives our route empty so it will help them and help us!!! This should be an ongoing thing every month or so.

Questions for this shipment: 

Question: Are the items boxed/protected? What is the total weight of the shipment. We will be happy to help you out both now and on future runs. (8/28/2007)
Response: hi the items will not be boxed. do you have moving blankets? i don't know the total weight yet as i haven't been down there yet to pick out the items. i will be going down on sun/mon/or tues of this coming weekend/week. do you make this run often? how much do you think you'll charge? is there a way to get a rough idea. i know i am not giving you much info and i will be able to provide more soon. thanks soon kelly (8/28/2007)
Response: Hi Kelly. We are 100% self service. You would have to wrap and protect the items. However, our price will be most affordable. We can pick them up anytime. Please give us a ballpark guess for the weight and we will bid based on that. (8/29/2007)
Response: hi its fine to have it be self service. i don't know the weight yet as we haven't seen the furniture. we are going down on monday and will have a good idea then. do you drive this route often? let's talk some more and see if we can work together. thanks so kelly (8/29/2007)
Question: I am very interested in this job and your future shipments. I have blankets, straps, everything I need to protect your furniture on its trip to your location. What is your timeframe for this shipment? Can it be done on a weekend? I look forward to hearing from you. Keith (8/29/2007)
Response: hi keith. that's great you have straps and blankets. yes, it sure can be done on a weekend. we are going to drive down on monday labor day to pick out the furniture and will drive back on tuesday. we are thinking of renting a cargo van or small truck for this first load as we'll probably only get 6-8 pcs first time. however, we may pick out more pieces that we will need picked up. its hard to tell as we haven't been there yet. the people are letting us sell their furniture on consignment and we just haven't seen it yet in person. do you drive this route often? we would like to be able to figure this out so that it is a flexible and easy thing to have someone pick up pieces and bring them up here on an ongoing basis. i wish i had more info for you. we are flex time wise and just need the furniture within a week or so of when we pick it out. thanks so and let me know how else i can help. kelly (8/29/2007)
Response: Thanks for the quick response Kelly. I do not drive this route very often, but often enough to make it an ok deal. Its good that this is not a time sensitive deal. It makes pickup and delivery that much easier. I am available pretty much any time on the weekends, you know that darn thing called a job just gets in the way of all the fun stuff. Anyway, keep me posted about your pickup. I think we could do this for around $250-$300. It really does depend on where the price of fuel goes from one week to the next. I hope that fits into your budget. Thanks. Keith (8/29/2007)
Response: hi keith yes, it sounds like we can easily work together. how much stuff can you haul? if i find that there is alot more there that i would like to have brought back to mpls, i am wondering how much you can take? is there any way i could connect with you via phone when i am down in iowa on mon/tues and talk with you about how much there is etc. we have decided to rent a long van to bring back as much as we can in it for a starter. we basically need to see everything and get some things back. i think there may be alot more that we will be interested in and if we could talk say monday nite it would be ideal. it might be tues am or whenever would be good.... let me know thanks so kelly (8/30/2007)
Response: Using this website, I have to put in a formal bid, then you have to accept the bid before contact info is exchanged. If its ok with you, I will put in a bid of $300, then once you accept the bid contact info will be exchanged vis Uship. Then we can discuss this further. Does that work for you??? Keith (8/31/2007)
Response: hi keith. yes it does work. i have to make sure we get enough pieces to distribute the cost over all of them... and i know we can work this out. i will accept the bid of $300 for freight charges for the furniture delivery. thank you so much kelly (8/31/2007)
