Moving advice

Dear Chiefsplanet...

I am moving to Illinois and have a, basically, brand new queen size mattress and box that was very expensive and I do not want to leave behind or sell for $0.60 on the $1. I got a few quotes for shipping rates and they are all over $300 and come from some pretty seedy shipping companies.

I don't need to rent a moving truck as all of my stuff easily fits into my 2002 Audi Allroad (with a sturdy luggage rack on top) and don't need to pay $800 + gas for a Uhaul + towing (for my car) rental.

Basically, I want to get this queen size bed and box to Illinois (800 miles) without getting pulled over for dangerous hauling (or whatever it may be) and with the mattress arriving in 1 piece in good condition. My friends seem to think with a tarp and several ratchet straps it would be more than safe on my luggage rack, but man...I just don't see it nor am I good with this stuff.

If anyone has any experience in this sort of thing or has some advice or anything...maybe even instructions on how to do this without ****ing my car up, my mattress up, and putting an entire interstate of other cars in danger...I would be greatly appreciative.

Go Chiefs,

Spoiler!

Be very careful about what you strap to your roof. It might come back to haunt you when you run for president one day.

i saw a accident yrs ago caused by a mattress comming off a car roof . the mattress flew off the car and landed onto the road a old bloke driving a old mini hit it he had no chance at all of stopping as the mattress landed right in front of him .

the mini hit the mattress and the mini rolled sevrall times on inpact the old bloke died of a broken neck at the scene i was in the next lane just behind the mini .

i got the number of the car who had lost the mattress as he didnt stop he was arrested at his home later . was a pretty distressing thing too see over several months as i was a wittness and had too attend court a few times

You could just stop by one of those magician shops in Texas and buy a magic wand for $50. That might be your best bet.

The least shocking revelation of the entire thread is that Ricky sleeps in a Queen bed.

This whole thing is pretty entertaining. Tell me, Gochiefs, can you actually see the dead guy or just hear his voice?

well the queen fits in my room a lot better than a king...I mean, I'm not a 40 year old man...I'm fairly young, still living in an apartment...and for the most part share the bed with me, myself and I...

not sure what I'd need a king sized bed for...in fact, this is the best bed I've ever had, which is why I don't want to leave it behind.

if we are definitely ruling out the luggage racks on top...not a good idea at all?


I just returned from a 1 week vacation in Destin and my budget doesn't really allow for me to sell a $1000 mattress for $200 and then buy another $1000 mattress after moving across country again and shelling out 1st/last and another security deposit
This is why Hootie might want to aim higher than making $40K per year on tips.
