给那位要跨州搬家的朋友

学生当了不少年，家也搬了几次。下面几个网站帮了我许多

UPS 的网页可以帮你Calculate Time and Cost。 只要你能提供箱子的size, length,
width, and height as well as weight. You can schedule a pick up time and
give them a call when you are ready. I use UPS to ship 14 boxes even TV
set without any problem. Use ground shipping which costs little.

U. S post office. I find the best rate to ship boxes of books is from U.
S post office. Only pay attention to not to excede their box size and weight.


http://www.uhaul.com
http://www.yellowtruck.com

These are two web sites for renting moving trucks. One of the best figure
is you always can cancel the reservation 48 hours ahead of schedule. If
you reserved a truck earlier and then find they have lower rate, you can
make another reservation and cancel the previous one as long as the truck
is available.

If you don't want to drive, there is another service called "you pack and
we drive"
http://www.upack.com/

The company will deliver a trailer, then you pack and load your stuff, they
will deliver the loaded trailer to your new home.

我的体会是，如果家具不值得留，就先卖了，把能用的东西通过UPS 或邮局寄走。
你最好那边有朋友帮你收一下。如果家具还可以，就用moving truck拉走。有时去
一个新地方，再置一个家也要费时，费钱。Good luck.
