Working with Movers Remotely

Our family left the Bay Area a few months ago to move in with family out of state (and get childcare help!). We decided to make it a permanent move and are hoping that we can move out of our apartment without making the cross-country trip back. Specifically, we're looking for recommendations for:

  • A moving company to pack us up,
  • A company that can store our things until we have a permanent home and then ship to our destination (like PODS), and
  • A person to help us prep for the move. This would include cleaning out a 5'x5' storage unit, making a Goodwill trip, and bringing a few things to the curb.

If you have any recommendations that might help with this process, we'd really appreciate it! Thank you!

RE:

It seems really risky to not be on site for any of the packing, IMHO. Just so many points where something could go wrong, especially if you are delegating a stranger to sort items that go to Goodwill versus those you want to keep.
