Man And Van Required - Moving House

[Richie1971]

Hi Guys,

Not sure if this the right forum but I thought you might have some local knowldge.

I am moving lock, stock and barrel from my house in Pin klao/Bang Yai borders to Ubon Ratchatani on the 20th March. I don't need a massive truck just something a bit bigger than a standard pick up truck - big enough for TV, Fridge freezer, sofa beds and Table and chairs plus assorted junk - (perhaps I do need a slightly larger than average truck!)

I have asked around locally and they either act like they're doing me a favour or quote some ridiculous price - never thought it would be this hard.

Does anyone know of a reliable firm who could fulfill this relatively straightforward task? I'm not expecting anyone to do it for nothing but 15,000 - 18,000 bht for a trip to Ubon seems a bit steep even for farang who have money too much, i could almost buy a truck for that or at least hire one.

Any replies, tel no's much appreciated.

cheers

Richie

When I moved my stuff from Bangkok to Pattaya I asked a car rental place in Pattaya if they could help. They arranged for a pick-up truck, driver and helper, drove from Pattaya to Bangkok, loaded the truck, drove back to Pattaya and unloaded the truck for about 2500Baht. May be you can find a pick-up truck rental place in Bangkok or Ubon to do the same thing.

Thanks for the help guys but the landlord has just offered me an almost acceptable price for the lot which i am sorely tempted to take.

Cheers
