Hello all!!! I just need to vent!!!

I feel like we pack and pack and move stuff over every day but when we go back to our apt we are still at i feel like we havnt moved anything! We are renting a uhal not this weekend but the following for all the large furniture but i just hope i can get all this done in 2 weeks!!!

LOL totally hear you Courtney... i am so bad at packing....

i hate moving and packing....

i know what you're going through!!!

it's also a good time to clear and throw stuff out!! =)

just hang in there. keep wrapping packing and moving it over... eventually, everything will be moved =)

Ack, I can't even imagine moving & packing myself. We were lucky since my dad was in the military and we always had movers. If you put your mind to it, you can do it!! And just think, this is also a great way to get rid of all the junk you have laying around the house that you want to throw away!

oh God, i hate packing too :P
i will do that soon in september and i already can imagine what i'll go through LOL

2 weeks is enough i think... just start slowly from each place, like kitchen first, living room, and then bed room. once the small stuffs all packed, it would be easy :P

I agree w/seahorse - go at it one room at a time and it goes much more smoothly! You will get through this. Moving is sooooo hard! Good luck! Focus on how much you love your new place and that will help, too!

I know exactly what you mean because I've been there recently :yes:
I moved in with my boyfriend about four months ago and it was really crazy!! I think two weeks is enough time for moving so please try not to worry much.
Of course after the move comes unpacking and there are so many things to be done but just focus to the fact that soon it'll be over and then you'll have all the time to enjoy your new home :tup:
Good luck!!!!

Are you in Doylestown, PA? If you are, we used Mambo Movers for our last move, and I have to say they were really inexpensive and super quick. When we priced it out, they were only a little more expensive than a moving truck would have been.

They moved us. It was $99 per hour with a 2 hour minimum. Four guys show up and bring everything in and out of the truck for you. I think our total cost was $300 and we were moved in less than three hours. We had a ton of stuff too! The price includes truck & insurance as well. They also bring equipment to move the big stuff which saves a ton of time.

They did such a great job, and were quick. They didn't waste time or "get lost" for a while to make more money. It was well worth it to not have to carry everything ourselves. All we did was clean up the old place while they were moving everything and stayed out of their way.

That's their website: http://www.mambomovers.com/

It was honestly worth every penny.
