Never Again LOL When I moved out of Montreal (Quebec) back to Ontario, I decided that I was going to "save" a few thousand dollars and accomplish it all by myself. I made about 6 round-trips between Ontario/Montreal (about 420km one-way), packing my shit all by myself into a Ford Bronco, from a 7th floor apartment to my truck in the underground parking and crossing 4 different doors along the way. Most of the larger furniture could be dismantled (IKEA), but I had all the time I wanted since I was on a month-to-month lease in Montreal. The project was complete after 4 months. I only needed an extra pair of hands with the mattresses and my couch - and a larger vehicle (a van) that was graciously loaned to me. The whole process was somewhat cathartic. But I am not sure I would want to engage in a 6 round-trip moving journey ever again. -- ../|ug --- OpenXP 5.0.50 * Origin: Mobile?
