Hey guys,

Does anyone know places or friends who are willing to do a cheap delivery service for a university student who goes to Waterloo? I have to move a twin sized (taken apart) bed from my toronto home to my new Waterloo place. It will only fit a van (where the seats can be folded) or something bigger.

If anyone knows anyone or any place that does this kind of stuff for cheap, please let me know!!!

Thanks guys for the help

best bet is to find a friend, or a friend of a friend, or a friends relative that has a Minivan.
Then you can pay them off whatever for their trouble/gas

Long story short, you can't depend on family members sometimes *sigh*

So that's why i'm looking for someone else to handle it for me. The thing is, I NEED someone to drive it up, I still didn't have time to get my G2 yet (btw, i'm almost 21....no comment haha). Anyways so does uhaul drive it up for me though?

Umm it really doesnt matter when I have the bed moved up by, because the thing is my semester is almost over, but I still have the house till next year so I was hoping to get this bed moved in either sometime soon or later (tomorrow, next week, a month, next few months) whevner anyone is free, i'll pay you guys of course.

Any help would be great.

lol...

no..you rent a Uhaul truck and drive up yourself.

Just get a friend to drive up with you..its cheap and easy..if you need to stay up there then have him return the truck.


probably the best way IMO

fastest way out:

Fedex Overnight.

actually the biggest problem is prob. the matress, but it helps a lot if u have a foam matress--fold.

post a thing in the b/s/t section saying "Free $75 to move my matress from Toronto-Waterloo"

Someone with a minivan will probably wnana do it on the weekend for a quick buck.

Actually I got some Pm's about it. And I think I might have a person who is able to pick up my bed and help it move it to Waterloo afterall. Not sure about the price yet, but I'm sure we can work out something reasonable out.

Thanks for eveyrones help, really really appreciate it.
