How did we acquire so much stuff?? It’s all going. My house seems like Mary Poppins’ carpet bag, the more you pack the more shows up. I’ve been packing for two weeks and it doesn’t seem like I’ve made a dent and the pile of boxes is growing when it should stay small. We’re trying to store only valuable or sentimental things. We’re not even storing any furniture and I think we’ll still have a fairly big storage unit. Bigger than I’d like.
For the move we’re trying to decide between renting a U-Haul type truck and doing one of the PODS or Door-to-Door options. They seem about the same price – around $1,000 to get down the coast from Seattle to LA. It would be nice just to drive our car and not a big truck with the car being towed behind.
