Shipping furniture from one state to another: Practical or not?

[microchip]

Just curious.

I'd be interested in having a Sofa and Loveseat shipped/moved/transported from Phoenix to Boulder.

I'm guessing I'd be better off just living with what's on the market here, but I'm still curious nontheless.

Not worth it. Unless it is worth a couple grand per piece.

Unless you can find some who just happens to be driving between those two places and has room, it isn't worth it.

[Carm]

Not practical, unless you dont mind shelling out extra cash for shipping.

You can try something like http://www.uship.com/. Free to list and you can set the price of what you're willing to pay.

I had a bunch of stuff moved from Phoenix to Seattle. My cousin is the head salesman for the local rep for a nationwide mover. It cost me $350 back in 2003, and that was just the fuel difference based on weight. Special deal for him and I. Full sized freezer, armoire, futon and antique sea chest.

I had a wingback chair and 40" dia. dining table shipped from Oakland Ca to Spokane WA 10 years ago. It cost $250.
