Most people I talk to have nothing but good things to say about you, but you sure come across as a condescending prick. Do you have an inferiority complex you've attempted to overcome through overachievement? Or were you fondled as a child?
You and slow99 should date. You both have passive aggressiveness down pat.

Mine was moving just 1-2 miles up Custer from the Ridgeview course to the Craig Ranch course. The 6 men part is where I know it isdifferent. Mine was around 8-9 hours with 3 guys, but I moved a lot on my own

We packed our own stuff, but to put it in perspective for the guy I used it was 8 or 900 dollars. We gave a 200 dollar tip.
He showed up around 0630 and was done around 1900.
Him and 2 guys
1 24' Truck Filled
1 12' Trailer Filled
2 Pickups Filled
1 Mustang Filled
When I say filled - cabs and all were stuff full. Almost did not have enough room for a broom.
Things of note, is a fairly large gun safe, 2 packed tool boxes, a medium sized - old school/home built smoker (heavier than gun safe)...etc
(This was after we did a run with our own 24' truck and 12' trailer load and not our storage units. )
The distance was from Plano to Van Alstyne - 40.5 milesOriginally posted by MR EDDU defend him who use's racial slurs like hes drinking water.

Seems like every moving company is "off duty fireman" or some shit like that...
