Len Thanks so much!
What else is important?
Decide will you do the move yourself or hire a mover to do it. Either way, have a timeline for your work.
I can see why that would be important. Do you think you will do the move yourself.
Two things come to mind; a dolly and bubble wrap.
Anyway, if I make the move myself, do you think you could help me?
Is there any special equipment that you think you’ll need.
Johanna I can see why that could be important!
Sure! Just let me know your timeline.
I think so.
