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!

Fly to Illinois, take it to the gate as a carry on, and then they'll gate check it for you for free.

Take it to Chick-Fil-A and sell rides on it until you have enough cash to buy another one.

Take it to a hotel 10 miles north and switch it with their mattress. Then next year do it again. And again. Eventually it'll reach Illinois and that last hotel will have to go back to the starting point to recover its mattress.

Find a cattle drive to Illinois and convince the rancher that strapping a mattress to a cow provides shade and comfort to it.

Paint a "Mattress Walk for Veterans" message on it and tell people that you're marching to Illinois to raise awareness of veterans. Raise money for your walkathon and have people help you carry it from town to town as part of the process.

Put in a giant envelope and put your new address in Illinois as the RETURN address then don't put a stamp on it... drop in mailbox.

Not going to read the thread, but if nobody has mentioned that luggage racks are often held to the car by plastic fasteners, it's worth considering.
