Depends a lot on how much stuff. I believe some moving companies will give (very rough) quotes over the phone

in order to allow you to ballpark the number.

As you know, we moved from Austin to Fort Myers recently. Our stuff took up about 1/2 of a United Van Lines 53 foot truck trailer. IIRC, the cost was ~5000

Of course, we moved a *much* further distance (and probably had more stuff. We seem to be hoarders)

I got quotes over the phone. They ask about number of rooms, appliances, etc. -- nm - loosilu Feb 19, 06:59
most moving companies will come out, itemize your stuff and give a detailed quote - decline Feb 19, 06:56 4
- I could probable give them a list, except for the number of boxes. -- nm - tRuMaN Feb 19, 07:00 3
  - you'll just need to estimate those. -- nm - decline Feb 19, 07:01 1
    - then double it. -- nm - loosilu Feb 19, 07:02
  - give your ex a solid date to get her crap out of there, or it ends up on the curb. -- nm - loosilu Feb 19, 07:01
