  > $5-6K for a move is a pretty substantial amount of money. No argument, but that's probably the lower bound for competence. If you aren't willing to pay that, congratulations, you have decided to do everything yourself. As I pointed out, there are a LOT of man-hours involved in moving and the employees involved are probably around $20/hour. That's a bit above the $15/hour wage that seems to denote above average competence (Target and Costco are both at $15/hour minimum--Costco goes up from there). As for that $5K, you can pay it in cash; you can pay it in time; you can pay it in grief. Choose your currency.
