Default need someone to unload us

We will be bringing a large truck to Tamarind village in mid Oct. We are looking for movers to unload our truck. Does anyone have movers or names in mind to contact?

Default Truck unloaders

Hi
Welcome! I see it's your first post. We have a while to go (maybe longer now if you know what I mean)

Suggest you do a google search.

talkofthevillages forum moving

There are locals that can help unload in the TV area.

Also check Uhaul.com They have on their website a tool to find unloaders.

You'll get more good advice shortly!

Good luck

Thank you for the suggestions. You noticed it was our first entry. Hopefully we will get more comfortable and correspond this way for MANY other questions that will follow. Everyone must be indoors talking this way due to the rain.

Welcome to TOTV dcas1, and welcome to TV... Hopefully we will see you at Crispers once you get settled in.

Here's a link that might help you from a previous TOTV question on the same subject. Hope it helps...

Big Welcome!
Try the Search at the top of board. Also, once you become a full time Villager, you will see how busy we all are here. So if you still need help, just bump your question this evening.
Again good luck with the move and welcome.

I used The Village Movers to recently unload a POD. Good job and a flat rate. A little expensive as compared to others but they could get here when I needed them and they were fast and no damage. Also used them to move some furniture from one location in the villages to another.

My mother moved to Tamarind Grove at the end of June and had The Village movers unload the UHaul truck we drove down for her. I agree with the assessment from nkrifats.

Best of luck and WELCOME TO PARADISE!!!

We're in the same situation .... awaiting delivery of a modular "Pod" this weekend. We have an arrangement with two men to unload @$50/hr. (for both). Since our job won't commence until Sunday, we obviously can't comment on quality, but we're comfortable with the arrangement.

If you're interested, I can provide name and phone number or let you know how it goes for us on Sunday.

Welcome to The Villages. I have used Tri-County Movers out of Ocala on several occations and have been very pleased. Bobby, the owner, is very fair on his pricing and normally charges by the job, with no minimum charge. His cell is 352-208-5288. I am sure he will give you a fair quote. Good Luck.

Smile your move

hi,

Hope your move into Tamarind Grove went well and your are getting settled. If you thought your movers did a good job; would you be willing to share their number and/or company name. We would like to have another option. Sounds like Tamarind Grove is growing by the minute; we look forward to meeting you all

Thanks again for the info
