Recommendations for Packers/Freighters near Fresno, CA?

[Josh Dersch]

Thanks, Mark.  The catch here is that the guy I'm getting the stuff from
isn't going to be able to help with the packing process -- I need to hire
someone to go to his place, pick the stuff up, pack it and ship it (which
Craters & Freighters will do, for a fee...)

Thanks,
Josh
