Hello Everyone. We put our house on the market today! Our goal is to move to the other side of Raleigh (We live in Wakefield Plantation near Wake Forest). I have a one-car garage shop,but I need to move the bulk of my tools to storage. I hope to leave my Table Saw, Lathe and Dust Collection in the garage and move most everything else. Be warned: I am known for packing a lot of stuff in a small space. Those of you that attended the first shop crawl might remember. :D

I plan on renting a truck with a lift-gate, and a storage unit at a nearby Public Storage. Is anyone available to help me next weekend? I am starting here to see if this plan will work. If yes, then I will rent the truck. Thanks for reading.

I will try to make it, but it depends if our closing gets rescheduled. Hope to know for sure by Wednesday.

Thanks! I have rented the storage unit. I will get a truck lined up tomorrow and confirm a time. Morning
sounds good to me.

I rented a truck with a lift gate. I pick it up Friday at 4 and have to return it by 1 on Saturday. So I may start moving stuff late Friday. I can get into the storage unit up to 9 PM. I have started moving small stuff already so I have the bandsaw, scroll saw, belt sander, Festool table unit (on wheels) drill press and cart, and work bench (disassembled) to move.

Really wish I could come and help, just moved my shop from one house to another and it is quite the chore. Tools weren't that bad to move but all the lumber was a pain. I'm pretty sure my physical therapist would kick my butt if I spent a Saturday morning on my feet moving stuff again. Hope it goes well for you!

Doug, Sorry but I have a gun show in Kinston that the wife and me are working. Maybe when you move into your new home I can help, Please PM me when you are moving to the new home!!

Sorry but I now have to be in Clayton for a funeral on Saturday morning. Trust me I would much prefer helping you with the move. Maybe I can help with the next phase.

Doug, I just saw this thread but I had commitments both days last weekend, so could not have helped.

Let me know if you still need help going forward.
