Default Moving books?

When your mover does their estimate, they will tell you how much the items you are moving weigh. Don't move stuff that will not fit. As stated by previous posters, bring less not more. If the budget allows, bring the good stuff and replace the rest when you get here.
I have a full library, does the 6.5 pounds formula consider books?

Thank you!
