When Points and I moved frmo RI to CO, we had a couple of companies come in and give us an estimate. I think they gave us binding estimates, too, which meant that if for some reason we were over-weight from what they estimated, they ate the cost. This ended up being a good thing because they misjudged something, somewhere, and we hadn't added anything new and had, in fact, gotten rid of some of the stuff we thought we were going to ship (we'd decided we'd rather over-estimate than under-estimate). Honestly can't remember who we went with, but the making-of-lists is important. We packed things up ourselves and listed what we'd put in boxes so we could find it later. We could actually find it later. Then we checked their paperwork with the boxes as they came into the house. Also a good thing. We ended up not missing anything, which was very nice. I'll prod Points to see if he can remember who we went with...
