BGR5928, my sentiments exactly. My heart hurts looking at this.

Hire movers. End of story. My husband and I helped some friends move across country earlier this year. They decided that the contents of their suburban, single-family home would fit in a 26'L box truck with a 12'L trailer attached, so movers were unnecessary. Being a good friend, my husband volunteered us to help - saying it was a disaster is an understatement. After taking 8 days of paid time off between the two of us, and driving 1200 miles, we were exhausted, completely under appreciated and became part of many uncomfortable, dysfunctional family disagreements. It was a miserable experience and no one should be subjected to that type of situation. Out of love for all our friends and family, we'll be hiring movers when we ditch our 1bdrm condo next summer.
