We just moved from Trinidad to Central Illinois last August. Had an estimate from Allied in Pueblo West. For packing, loading, transporting a three bdrm house and three out buildings, they "estimated" around $10,000. Although I just had a cancer operation about two months before the move (kidney, ureter and bladder cuff removed) we bought a brand new 6X12 dual axle Haulmark trailer for $5,000, rented a big box truck from Penske for $1,000 and moved ourselves. Just sold the trailer here locally inIllinois at a $1,000 loss so the move didn't get anywhere the $10,000 mark. However, for that move, I was still not back to "normal" whatever normal is for a 79 year old and knowing what I do now, I'd have paid to just sit back and watch the professionals do the job. We did save money but the move was a bit overwhelming for an older guy so, lesson well learned. Now I had better go give my guns another coat of oil to protect them for having them in the "Rust belt" of Illinois.
