In and out of business in 4 days!


About a week ago we went into the moving business to help my sister move to her new home in Delaware. She had some household items stored in our barn, the bulk of her things in storage in Memphis (from where she moved), and a few new items to pick up in North Carolina. Four days later we unloaded the truck, retired from the moving business and came home on Amtrak.


Here Sandy and Judy hold back everything we had stuffed into storage last fall when she sold her home. Note there is only about one inch of space left at the front of the storage area. We had had to hold the box spring back and quickly shut the door when we had it all in.




This is the truck we stuffed it all into, a 26-ft rental from Penske.











And here's the route we took, more or less, nearly 1500 miles. You may need to click on the "minus" box on the map to see the whole route.

Now, back to our regular programming.

I couldn't have done it without you and Sandy. I have had several people comment on how great it is to have family who would do this for one another. I'm lucky in that respect. Remember to bring all the necessary tools next time, as you have gone from "Mover" to "Landscaper" once again. . .
