4cat - My lawn guy has done just that for me, my mom, and a couple of the others on the list. He just gave up the lawn business for a full time job, so he may not do it any more. But I'll ask and see what he says. Big strong college football player and perfect for that sofa and beds.


Feel free to avail yourself to the local cadre of individuals in seek of temporary employment for cash / sunshine deli as well as Home Depot will prove to be prosperous locations

4cat...my neighbor just purchased a box truck for small jobs such as that. If you would like his number PM me and I will pass it along to you and maybe he could help out.


We also need help moving items from one floor to another in our house. Used to be employees of moving companies would freelance doing small jobs, but we have no idea where to look for these workers because all the moving companies are centralized, and only they have access to these people. If you find someone helpful, please pass on the information!


Thanks for the suggestions. I am contacting those mentioned. However I'm not inclined to rent a truck or look for laborers on the street. We need 2 strong, reliable and responsible men to move these few items. I'll report back if I get the right person.
Any other suggestions are welcome.

You can hire help to move, a few strong guys, via the UHaul web site.

My daughter used them to load the truck, and another crew to unload the truck, the 2 locations were about 50 miles apart. She was very happy with the help.

Just truck the truck from Home Depot


I interpret the need as a move from one floor to another. No truck needed I believe.


Call Georges Moving Boonton, NJ

Wantage is close to his service circle.....and Hackettstown is right on the circle.
