[quote=LAAFTERHOURS]I have used Upack on two cross country moves bc we were not paid moving expenses on either occasion. I dont know if i would use it now (more stuff and nicer stuff) but it worked well for what it was.
Upack drops a truck (without the cab) in front of your home. You have a set amount of time to have it packed and you put up a lockable partition once you are finished. They pick it up, pack the rest of the truck with freight going to your destination area (this contributes to the lower cost) and move it across the country. You unpack it when it gets there.
We packed the home ourselves and hired professional movers to move all our stuff out of the home, pack the truck and unpack it on the other end.
In two moves, we lost only one vase and has scratches on one piece of furniture. We put tarps over top of everything to protect our stuff just in case.
Sounds like a lot of hassel but it went smoothly on both occasions and usually saves a lot of money. Picked up movers via emove i believe.[/quote]
Thanks! I already got an instant quote from them and they definitely seem resonable if that’s really their price($4500 Coast-Coast w/o loading which I figure is an extra $1K on each end). Still have more to check out, but they seem promising.
