We put our house on the market yesterday 2/25/08 and we are planning to move to Willow Springs, garner or Rolesville, undecided yet until the house moves here...
We are preparing the move by asking if anyone have any good experience with any moving companies who are not crooks, and have storage options, while we search for a home in the areas mentioned? I used to love snow, but hate it lately don't need snow every other day. You will know what I mean if you are originated from the northeast. I own a home based internet company so location is flexible. RTP I would get away from as far as I can until the 540 is completed. We saw many stick built homes and met few builders who are nice. But stick built homes are put "together" in less than 90 days , that scares me. I see many flat panel TV cut outs above the fireplace, creative thinking but not for all buyers. People in NC are exceptionally friendly. We stayed at the Holiday Inn @ Chapel Hill, Absolutely loved it. Great food accommodations. Getting used to watching UNC and Duke basketball games everyday try to forget about the superbowl nightmare. If anyone has any relevent suggestions for us, please feel free to write to us.
Thanks again, Stephen

My sister and her family moved back here from New Hampshire almost 2 years ago. They were in merrimack for 6 years. The cold, snow, and yuck from the snow made them move back to the triangle sooner rather than later. I live in wake forest, and they moved here as well. Let me know if you have rolesville questions.....it is a great little up and coming town.
Just think, you will exchange the black flies for mosquitoes!
We moved from NH in October 2007 and LOVED the movers who moved us down! They broke every one of my sterotypes about movers. Not only were they hardworking and careful, but they were friendly, too. We enjoyed having them in our home.
Anthony Chavis, an independent owner of an Allied van connected to Siracusa Moving and Storage, and his team packed us and moved us. However, a different crew moved our things from storage to our permanent location after we bought a home. Apparently, there are rules governing long-distance v. local moves. The guys that are higher up on the food chain do the long distance moves.
I should add that we were part of a corporate relocation and never saw a bill.
Good luck to you in your research. If you do searches of this board on any variety of topics, you'll find a wealth of information. I monitored this board for close to a year before we moved. We ended up in SW Durham and love it! Had I not had this board as a resource, we probably would have settled in N. Raleigh or Cary out of ignorance of other viable options.
We're on our way down in 6 more days from NH to Wake Forest!! My husband has been working/living in Raleigh for 5 months while the kids and I stayed behind to sell the house. It took 4 months which in this market isn't too bad, though we did take a huge cut in the selling price of our home. I think we will do great in making it up in NC however. We bought in Reynolds Mill and are getting quite a house for the money! We are actually using ABF where you pack up and they drive the truck down.
