Moving Stuffs?

You can pack stuff up and mail it yourself by the US Post Office, or UPS ground ship it - it doesn't necessarily need to be a moving company. Mailboxes, etc might be a good place to check out.

Sorry I missed this. I wasn't around much of the weekend.

I agree with Karen, I think UPS would probably work for you. If you ship it ground, it would probably be to you within a week, you can insure it for whatever it is worth and you will get a tracking number so you can follow the progress. Weights and dimensions would be needed though. You actually can go on to their website and answer the questions and it will give you a quote. If you can't get to their website, if you can give me the weights, dimensions, value of each box and the ship from and ship to zip codes I can do it for you.

OH MY moosmom! I'm extremely soo sorry about that! things you regret forever.. I thank and appreciate so much for you taking your time sharing experience with me. so so terrible!!

I love mailboxes, etc.! they're really good, reasonable prices and lots of various, fun choices what to send in, with, etc. for some reason that one disappeared out my mind when I moved here. will check that out! and POD too!

furrykidsmother, no need to be sorry, wasn't expecting an answer from you. but I could give one try, can you find a quote/an estimate for about 40lbs, 20x30x20? (I know the dimensions aren't exactly in order.. do we go by widthxlengthxheight?) lol. thanks!

[furrykidsmother]

I would be happy to get a quote for you, it goes by length x width x height.

I also would need the from and to zip code. You can PM with that if you would like and I'll get it for you as soon as I can.

[sandragonfly]

d'oh. you got my zipcode. so it's 30x20x20 then. how do you remember?

[furrykidsmother]

Got your zip code. It would take about a week to get to you and since it is a large package it will have a dimensional weight to figure. I'll go do it now and send you a PM.

looks like everything is settled, but if everything can be packed in a few boxes, UPS is definately the best way to go. If someone is there on the West coast to package it and take it to the UPS store, then you'll be best off money wise for sure!

I work with furniture and moving, etc. If you only have a few items and use a moving company, they will merely shove it on the back of a truck and then they'll take their sweet old time tossing it onto another truck. There will be a few layovers along the way... before you know it, that stuff took $1,000 to ship and 2 weeks to get to you. They'll give you a song and dance about the high cost of fuel these days and how they had to blanket wrap things, yadda yadda yadda. UPS will take a few days and 75% cheaper because all they do is shipping.
