Ugggghhhhh god moving is expensive. I'm not even leaving the city!

The first place I tried quoted me a whopping nine hundred dollars just to move a bedroom set, a few book cases, and a computer desk. FOR REAL?

The second place I found quoted me about half that, which is still really expensive but, like, a whole lot better.

The third place I managed to get about a hundred bucks less than the second one, and time is running out, so I booked them. Holy shit, dude.

I'm moving next Tuesday, on the 11th, and I'm looking around and I still have so much to do. I have today off so once I get out of bed, I'll pack the car up and do another run each to both the storage unit and the new place to dump more stuff. I've also got to stop by the post office to mail a bunch of packages, and I'll need to pop into the grocery store too. I've been really needing to get my hair cut, but I haven't had the time. Hopefully this weekend?

If it costs this much just go move within the same city, I am full of anxiety and dread thinking about how much it is going to cost to move across the country.

I hope the $900 company wraps all of the items individually in bubble wrap, including furniture? That's nuts.

Congrats on getting movers booked! You're doing great!

Moving is stupid expensive, I'm sorry you've got to deal with that twice in such a short time. Good luck with getting everything done!

(I moved cross country a couple of years ago, so I'm happy to share tips from my experience if you want them for the second move!)
