Default Moving “Partner” Share Expense, Wash, DC/N VA to Upstate NY 2 26' Trucks Avail. Unique.

Moving “Partner” Share Expense
I have the equivalent of 2 empty 26’ Moving Vans (w moving equipment) going toward Upstate N.Y. from N. VA., Wash, Baltimore area, 3rd-4th week July.
I have an unlimited mileage top brand moving van that will be leaving N. VA on approx July 21 for upstate NY that will be completely empty.
FYI, the van will be arriving at my new home (Not selected yet) in N. VA. from my present home in Orlando, FL. After unloading my initial load in N. VA the Truck will be going to Saratoga Springs, NY (30 miles N of Albany) empty. This accounts for the first 26’ availability. I can meet you anywhere (Including my new (rental) house in VA. or anywhere in the greater Wash/Balt. corridor to pick up your load going North.

Ultimately, once your load is delivered, I will be going to Saratoga to pick up my load #1 which will go back to N.VA.
Then, only, if needed, you may repeat the above (Only if you have a large move) as I have to go back to Saratoga (From N. VA) for load #2, where, obviously, I will be empty.

I can accommodate interested parties by driving approximately 100 miles off the normal route from N. VA to Saratoga Springs, NY. Likewise, I can divert (100 miles) off my route to your destination similarly.

I will, obviously, give you ample time to load, say, the better part of a day. If an overnight is required, we can discuss. Unloading is much easier and takes half the time. These times may be flexible and extended, provided I don’t lose my rental rate. Extra days are costing me $50 per day.
You may stay with your cargo at all times; keep the truck overnight, if necessary. It will be just me driving. I can consider, possibly, using you, to help me unload, initially, in N. VA., (If you are around there). Also, I can consider, but may elect not to help you load/unload. We will discuss particulars (I am 63 yrs old) Of course you can hire men at either end.

Initially, if you just go on trip 1, I will have a minimum of 36 blankets and some rope you can use. On trip 2, either you, or partner # 2, if there is one, will have at least 60 blankets and a sturdy handcart, but the handcart is in Saratoga; and only available on trip # 2. I do have very good padlocks (if needed)
Trip # 2, from N. VA, Northbound, is tentatively scheduled for the 24th July.

I do have numerous references. You may ascertain my identity however you choose.
Do a cost analysis doing the move individually. Then, contact me and you can make a proposal. The Van is a diesel and is supposed to get 8-12mpg. This is a shared expense venture. I am not a mover.

Tentative route is I-95 MD, DE, NJ (Turnpike) to 87 North. Alternatively, I can go up the back way through PA into NY, etc. I will go into New York City, if that’s what it will take.
