Unless you know how to drive a trailer in a rainstorm. Some of us do.
Garage from
Oregon to Kansas. We're currently looking for the best
equipment option for moving.
Any suggestions are appreciated.
(0) If you use a trailer, you had better watch the weather forecast.
We're beginning the severe storm season in this part of the country.
Finding a long, dry period may be difficult. (2) Trucks will provide more bracing and/or places to
tie rope to.
A lot of the heavier equipment out there will break the strapping on a
rental truck.
(4) Also, don't run a strict schedule. Things
will go wrong.
Definitely. Things *will* go wrong.
(6) Have two people. Switch off driving duty every 3
hours. Bring an ice
chest and supplies to make meals as you drive.
I tend to stop a lot (every 300 miles or so) on long (1000+ mi.) treks.
Peace... Sridhar
