The Family Sideways: Moving

MovingScam.com :: View topic - Julie Brown's moving saga: "Start packing as soon as possible. Packing allows you to see what you don't need. Unload the closets, drawers, and extra rooms. We threw away an average of 2 huge trash bags a week of junk--and we will have two full carloads of donations to Goodwill. We also sold about 30% of what we owned. Everyone owns more than they think they do. Also, never underestimate how long it takes ti wrap every piece of glassware you own in something protective. "

As if planning the wedding wasn't enough. This is going to be a complete nightmare. Not to mention all the reports of how easily (and often) people are scammed by movers. Especially inter-state.

Seeing as most (all?) movers charge per pound, this should be a good way for me to get rid of some stuff that I really don't need. Finding a reputable mover, though - and quickly - is going to be the biggest challenge..
