That would be cool. It is only a single wide mobile home, and I don't have too many heavy or bulky items, so it should not take too long. no sofa, or dining room furniture, bed is twin size. I do have a safe that is heavy, but it is only 2' by 2'. I am trying to get as many boxes as I can from the local thrift store to help get things packed up. U-Haul will only let me have the truck for 6 hours, so if Scott can help on the 7th, I'll just cancel the U-Haul reservation.

I have 4 guys lined up here to help, and with your help and/or Maltman, I doubt it will take us long. Like i said, I don't have much stuff. Most of it is small stuff. I will be getting boxes from now until the move date from the Thrift Store, and will pack as much as possible. That should make it take even less time. With this much help, I figure maybe 3-4 hours at the most, and that includes getting it put in a storage unit.
As for camping out overnight here, bring a sleeping bag or thick blanket. I have two recliners in the living room, I sleep in one and someone could sleep in the other one, and in the small bedroom is a twin size bed for another person. Or if you don't mind sleeping on the floor, you can bring a sleeping bag and do that. However, only the bedrooms have carpet, so you would be on tile. I can leave the heater on all night to keep us warm. Normally I don't keep it on all night, just on long enough to get the chill out, and turn it off. It comes on automatically if the temp gets below 50 in the house. However, I sleep under two thick blankets, and with 2 shirts on, and pants, and slippers, and a beanie, so I don't feel the cold until the morning when I crawl out from under the blankets. LOL

Happy Sunday all. Hope everyone has a blessed day.
Scott, Lil Bubbles is welcome to come if she wants. She can have the small bedroom all to herself. I think with the 4 guys I have her plus you and her, we can knock this out in no time. By then most the small stuff will be boxed up already, and the only big stuff is the recliner, twin bed, and a couple of videotape cabinets. The safe is heavy, but relatively small for a safe. There are two window AC units I will need help removing from the windows too. However, I have no sofa to move, and the kitchen stove and refrigerator belong to the complex, so I won't be moving those either.
