I guess I'm a red neck. Because I've been known to haul a pallet with 75 sacks of 2 cu.ft. mulch on it, stacked about 6' high and weighing around 2,000 pounds in a half ton pickup.

On the freeway.

Used pallets can fetch from $2-5 ea. If they're the treated wood type, they are worth more. They cost about $8+ new.

Who uses sacks? My dad just drives down the road and has a guy dump it in his truckbed with his bobcat.

I can't get the red stuff in bulk here. I've got to have red mulch to match the shutters. Duh!

They've got the red stuff down the road, but it goes super fast. I'll take some pics of their huge piles for you come summer.

And who rents a closed truck for moving household appliances? I've put a refrigerator, a clothes washing machine and a bed on my uncles 94 Dakota w a rope and a cheap blue tarp to cover everything in case of rain.

My last house was like 3,000 sq.ft. I moved from there to here with 1 pickup truck and a 16' flat bed trailer, over and over and over again. Just me and two nephews I paid to help.

I'm gonna get a sign for the truck next time. "Redneck Movers-One truckload at a time."

better than here....people pull out in front of me everyday on a major hwy (one lane, 55mph limit) and go 40-45, when everyone else is doing 60+...it's every-freakin-day! and there's no chance to pass!

Um. Let's see.

About 1100 feet.

Next move will be about 300 feet.

Nope. I'll be moving up the street just a little bit away from my parents. I've kind of got a lot picked out. It's 1/2 acre. I know its small, but that's twice the size of this lot.

There's also a 2.5 acre lot I'm looking at that's about 1/4 mile from here.

Yep I went for an 08 Nopar for a winter beater (they're cheap and a jillion on the road and Ford doesn't make a hatchback grrr), so the Bullitt stays nice. Spring's gettin' closer!

That's all? The closest house to us is at least 500. And there's a tons of pine trees between us. I'd definitely get the bigger lot.
