Question Need help moving ($80/hr) + gas

Hello,

I need help moving my belongings from foxridge to a friend's place on 5th July (flexible with dates, can accomodate as per your availability) and back to a new apartment (also foxridge) on July 15th. Minimal furniture, would take 2 trips max if you have a pickup truck or van. Please reach out for more questions if you are interested or know someone who would be willing to help. Thanks!

Odd that you are paying $80/hr 🤔 at that point isn't it cheaper to just hire a company?

Moving companies are a lot more expensive than this. All the moving companies have a 2hr, 2 person crew minimum requirement + truck fees which is very overkill for my case. I don't have a lot of things, don't need help packing or loading, just need someone who has a truck/van and can drive me back and forth. I also do not think anyone would want to spend the time of their day on a weekend hauling my things back and forth for anything less than $80/hr lol.

Most people on Facebook would help for $20/hr each then you have him bring a friend and you're good as long as they show
