Additional Information: Hello!
I am looking to move one mattress and box spring with support railings from Boca Raton, Florida to Cambridge, MA.
I haven't actually measured it, but it is a typical full size mattress. I have researched around and the average dimension is 75" X 54".
I am moving to a new apartment in Cambridge and my lease starts on September 1st. So delivery on that day would be ideal. A day before or a couple of days after would also work.

Ideally I would have movers come inside to pick up and unload the mattress. However, if needed, I can provide assistance with loading and unloading
on each end if given the exact pickup and delivery times. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask!

Response: hello john!i will bring my bid down to $200.00 but i can only pick up and deliver this month around the 20th.to the 22nd.and yes the load would be shared with others but it would not delay shipment unless it was unforseen.their are no real guarantees in the moving business customers are late,trucks break down,weathers bad,road accidents.ect.we do the best we can.please read our feed backs we do a pretty good job.i hope we can work for you please let me know if i should place a bid.thanks.dave.e. (8/15/2008)
Response: Hi Dave - would you be able to let me know which day you'd come for pickup so that I can ensure someone's there to assist you? Would you be able to pick up the mattress one of those days after 4pm? Also, I'm at work all day in Cambridge, and this would work better if you could let me know 2 hours before you arrive that you'll be in town - as opposed to me taking a full day off. Thanks, John (8/18/2008)

Response: Hey Dave, thanks for your interest. However I'm really trying to get this in my new apt, which starts on the 1st of sept. If you shipped it by the 25th, I would have to find a way to transport it to my new apt later. Good luck with the moving and thanks for the interest. John (8/21/2008)
