their costs.

We are not discussing larger national companies whose niche in market is

certainly 'expensive' (and whose branded image may or may not live up to customer's

expectations). Neither are we talking about whole residences, or expensive, specialist

items or complicated jobs. We are talking about jobs which are small and simple, and which will not threaten a

delivery time schedule:- Unexpected complications are hidden cost and expense of

real removals. These jobs may include a two man removal crew, but if customer

wishes to help out, thereby reducing labour cost, so much better.

There are two types of move for which load sharing can be an option.

1) Often people have single items to be moved with no particular urgency - maybe they

have been given a piano or need to swap furniture between houses. There are plenty of

removal companies who are continually building up lists of these time flexible jobs, so

they can create an efficient delivery route. The problem has always been that these enquiries were uncoordinated, and it used to be a

matter of luck as to whether a customer could find a remover able to offer either a firm

date or a price. www.student-movers-forum.com offers this service.

So, needless to say, I’ve been going a little stir crazy and was so happy for extra help.

The kids were excited too. They love spending time with their Dad.

In fact, on days he does work, there’s a terrible commotion when he comes home. As soon as van pulls in driveway, kids run to window and start yelling, “Daddy, Daddy, Daddy” in that familiar, excited child chant. Next, as Wade comes up sidewalk, they all scramble to get to front door—usually getting in trouble for pushing to see who gets to stand right at opening. Finally, front door opens, and everyone cries, “Daddy, you’re home!” They jump up and down while they wait for their turn to be picked up and hug.

There’s nothing my kids like more than spending time with their Dad, and I hope same is true for you too!

So, on Wade’s day home yesterday, he decided that he needed to get garage organized. Of course, everyone wanted to go out and help; and I was just to eager to get some breathing space. Since garage is heated, they could have a little fun without it slowing down their immune system.

They were probably out there for three hours, but it seemed like only three minutes before they were back inside and desperate for something to eat.

As I fixed them something, I listened to stories from garage. One that nine-year-old Nathan told me really caught my attention.
