Arlo and Janis: $10K off

Me too, moving all your stuff is a real pain.

I guess paying someone $10k to move their stuff hasn't occurred to
him.

In Germany in the late 70s, our barracks were renovated. This involved
a simple 3-step process:

1) We moved out to the building next door, which was empty.
2) Renovation proceeded, taking about 6 months.
3) We moved back, installing new wall-lockers (this were nice large
wood lockers) as we went.

During the move, I helped move Supply. Supply turned out to have a
/lot/ of stuff, mostly in very heavy wall-lockers. For those, we used
5/4 truck to cover the 50 or 100 feet or so from one building's Supply
entrance to the other's. For our stuff, we did it ourself. "The
journey of a thousand round trips begins with a single step".
