Questions & Answers
Question 1: (9/3/2008 9:32:00 AM) from fremont
The first rate is the cost for moving, the second one is with full packing. You do not need to pack the furniture or TV's. Exercise equip. would depend on the equipment. Treadmills & such wouldn't need to be packed but individual weights may. The move cost w/ the car and without packing service is $4775.30. Is there access for a tractor-trailer (18 wheeler) to load you in Chicago or would you require a smaller truck?
    Answer 1: (9/3/2008 9:47:00 AM) From shirley
   First of all, my move date will probably be Mon. Sept. 29....will be able to confirm soon. Your price of $4775 for moving my household & car is satisfactory. I live on a typical size side street in Chicago. Normally on weekdays there is plenty of parking. Since I am terrible at visualizing, I am unable to accurately picture an 18 wheeler in front of my house. I don't think it would be a problem for traffic as traffic is very light. Does that help any? Shirley

Question 2: (9/2/2008 4:05:00 PM) from fremont
Sorry, one more thing, the rate did not include auto transport, it can be moved with the household or you can use an auto carrier. If you would like an estimate w/ household or a # for a carrier, let me know.
    Answer 1: (9/2/2008 4:45:00 PM) From shirley
   I thought it did include auto as after I revised list to include it, your bid went from $3442 to $4633
Question 3: (9/2/2008 4:02:00 PM) from fremont
We would require a 3 day window for loading, because it's loaded on the truck that will deliver. The rate I sent included full pack so it would be less if you do your own.
    Answer 1: (9/2/2008 4:47:00 PM) From shirley
   Have packed everything except. furniture, microwave, exercise eqpt., and 2 small TV's, 13" & 20"
Question 4: (9/2/2008 2:08:00 PM) from smsrelocation1
We can pick up your belongings on Monday or any day you're available.
    Answer 1: (9/2/2008 4:49:00 PM) From shirley
   Move date is now Mon., Sept. 29.
Question 5: (8/29/2008 3:03:00 PM) from fremont
We are not available for loading on Sundays, is Saturday the 13th an option?
    Answer 1: (8/30/2008 2:26:00 PM) From shirley
   Was actually thinking of changing moving date to a Monday. Also, have done majority of my own packing.
