We moved from WI early June. Best thing we ever did. I can tell you which moving company not to use. contact me mjroemer@comcast.net. Get rid of as much stuff as you can. Especially china, chairs, tables, clothes etc. In other words, we brought to much and now have boxes in closets, garage etc. We had 4 rummages, sold antique stuff gave a lot to Goodwill and we still over did it. Bring a little more money that you think you will spend. To get settled, it costs a bit more. After settling in, things even out pretty much. Example is Florida charges $450 dollars + to get Florida license plates. Set ups for utilities is a little more tha WI. When you get here, keep checkingin with TOTV. Many helpfull ideas are written after you arrive. Good luck and I hope you don't get a flat tire like we did and your moving van arrives on time, not 2 days.
