This is the first I heard about you moving. Are you doing it for work, or are you finally retiring? Hope it's the latter!

sold our primary resident home for 5 K off the asking price :00hour:00hour:00hour
Home in Colorado springs is framed, Good times guys, good times #5:toast:

Betone--Springs huh--what area?

Kings Deer golf course, Monument area :0008
#4 :toast:

Excellent area-north out of of the Springs. Why the Springs area?

Kids living in Denver, wanted to have some distance away. In retirement I do not want to deal with traffic and everything the big city has. We are a short drive away from kids and all that Denver has to offer. I can not wait to go to a Broncos game! Always wanted to go to Mile high stadium and also see the Rockies stadium for sure.

It was expensive if they bill you $7500. When we moved into our new home, some of my friends helped to transport some of our stuff. They just needed to put on a truck bed cover to secure some stuff on the back but other than that its good. I just also needed to pay for their gas.

Step 1: Put everything in your house into a truck bed.

Step 2: Put a cover on the truck bed.

Step 3: Move

Easy! :0008

Real quick search I found out trucking companies charge about $1.50 a mile to move shit and that includes everything.

$10K is ridiculous.

Figure a ridiculous amount for 3 guys loading and unloading at a high cost of $150 hour for 30 hours. No way it takes that long, no way. That's $4500. Then figure a high cost of $2.00 a mile to drive it there. $2800.

Total cost $7300. You were spot on with your estimate.

and probably both ends have 2-3 rented guys and driver is only one to be paid full time.

so that's 3 x 3h ~150 x 2 + driver+truck for 30h (and back).

labor+truck expenses are 5?k max
