check some friends who have had corporate moves.. then hire the mover,,driver,. I moved 11 times. never a problem. of course company picked up the tab and these guys know a gravy train and do not want to get off. The driver is the key, he packs the load, day before moving , local laborers from the hall will come in to pack. the driver will make sure he selects those with experience and didn't cause problems for him during other moves. Loading goes fast but the key again is the driver he packs his truck, he is an independent contractor to the moving company (the two drivers i talked with owned their own cab). Same at delivery point in your case same local area. if the crew is great he may keep them or have the same crew for local deliveries all the time. they will come in unload and put heavy stuff down where you want and will move it once. You can also hire someone to unload china and all the kitchen stuff and put it away(your wife will appreciate it). This requires extra supervision as you find everything in one cabinet and nothing in the other etc. Same you need to supervise unloaders to make sure you got stuff going where you want in the house. No matter how good they seem to always want to take short cuts. Moving can be painless if you get a good driver, and damage free. The driver spends most of his day in the trailer, packing and then unpacking mdse. During packing he directs the loaders as to what he wants next from the house.
