A clean-out service is coming

Nothing heavy except maybe for the chest freezer so guess $350.00

Deb forgot to mention what the prize is for guessing the closest.

Maybe a yard sale item chosen from one of the past pics that is still available The item will be free. Winner must pay for shipping & handling.

Between $500 and $1500. It's gonna be expensive for sure.

Are you any closer to moving into your new house? Like...do you have a date in mind yet?

Most of the small items are at the other house. I have to get my ducks in a row.
1) clean out trash
2) move large furniture
3) get cable service

I don't know how getting my cable service switched works. I'm not sure what setup the previous owner had. To me it just looks as if she had a land line phone in the kitchen and a TV line in the living room. There's a modem in the basement, but don't know whether its for TV, Internet or phone. Here, I have separate lines for each. I also may want things in different places that the previous owner had them (e.g. TV and phone in one bedroom, Internet and phone in another room).

Just call them, give your new address and tell him what you want; they'll take care of everything.
 
Ducks in a row. Is that anything like herding cats :LOL:

@RadishRose is right. Just call the cable people and tell them what you want. A heads up...it might be that the installer will expect to be paid when the job is done. It depends on whether the cable company contracts the work out (many of them do). Ask how to pay.

Also, land lines are going the way of gas lights in the next two years or so, and you should consider just ditching it in favor of cell service.

ETA: Just thought of something else...if you have the time and haven't already done it, mark the pieces you want removed...maybe with colored duct tape or at least something they can't miss.
 
The junkman said it's a flat rate, no matter what they take. $700 per truckload and pro-rated. So if they fill their truck once - $700. If they have to come back and it fills half the truck, it would be $350.

I was a little miffed. He said he's be here between 9 and 10 am. Wategd unto 10:40 and called him. He said (as almost all do), that a job he had too longer than expected since the other customer kept bringing out things that weren't on his original dispoasl list. Too bad I had to call HIM. He would not take the freezer in the cellar.
 
Like the Nike logo...Just Do It!

Never mind more estimates. You're overanalyzing, overthinking, and probably a victim of GAD, generalized anxiety disorder, getting worried or nervous for no particular reason. You're going to have to bite the bullet and make a decision sooner or later. Do yourself a kindness and make it sooner and be done with it.

Just. Do. It.
