Shamuan, (Peter Norvig, Sid Mazumdar), All, 

Greetings! Thanks for your reply just now: 

"Im just not sure of what you’re asking? I don’t know who all is in the email chain I am just replying to your emails about the deposit, if you want to forward it to someone you can."

I think I need to wait until you reply to all of us with for example the email you sent just now - as a form of social insurance - and then potentially deal with deposit questions prior to departing Pgh PA Monday afternoon, if you, for example, don't have an equipment malfunction in the Sprinter van you mentioned on the phone on the way to Pittsburgh. What do you think? What would we do with a van equipment  failure? I don't see anything about this in the contract for example. The people in this email thread are all potentially helpful people regarding this long moving journey to Canyon 94516 from Pgh PA 15208 beginning on Monday possibly, in a variety of ways. Thanks so much for your help - and please click reply all in your next email, if you'd like to proceed with this move of my things across the country from PA to CA.

FRIENDLY QUAKER GREETINGS, and thanks for the social insurance of clocking reply all, appreciatively, Scott

Hi Shamuan, Peter Norvig, Sid Mazumdar, All, 

Thanks for your email reply to my email -

"I am not sure or what you’re asking and to be quite honest it’s getting quite tricky for me."

Glad we're communicating about this before any kinds of deposits have been made, whether $500 or $1750, before traveling west from Pgh to the SF Bay Area. Am seeking a kind of social insurance re your email and 'tricky' word. Again:    

"Shamuan, (All),  

Thanks for your email this morning, and your interest in moving forward to Canyon 94516 on Monday 8/28/23 from Pgh PA at 2 pm ET.

AS A KIND OF SOCIAL INSURANCE, could you please reply to all of us (friends, family, contacts, and especially Peter Norvig a head of AI at Google, and Sid Mazumdar in the federal government, both of whom could be helpful as we travel west across the country) what you'd would do if for example you were to have an equipment malfunction on the road from Richmond VA to Pgh PA on Monday - and re the contract we signed yesterday? 

I'd be open to sending the deposit to you if you could please do the above.

Again, 

I'd be grateful for your reply to me and this group of people, as a kind of insurance. Thank you!

Also, are you listing in Craigslist, where I learned of you and got your contact information, and similar, for your return from the SF Bay Area to Richmond Virginia, AFTER September 1, 2023 -

Shamuan, are you interested in this moving job of my things from Pgh PA to Canyon 94516 departing Monday ? Please let all of us know, and then we can talk about possible deposits.

Thanks very much, best, hoping to see you on Monday, but if it's too "tricky" to reply to all if us, please let me know when I should start looking into other transportation options (eg Budget or UHaul trucks with tow trailers, 2 Men and a Truck etc).

Hi Shamuan, (All), 

Thanks for your text message response - 

"Sorry that is what we require before we set forth with any of our moves. In those instances we would refund money if we couldn't have resolution for the problem. No what recourse would I have if you didn't show up to storage maybe because of a malfunction or anything god forbid, so that's kinda a two way street! You've seen the reviews you've seen the website we just hope that you would trust us! If you don't feel comfortable with that I totally understand!"

I think I need to think this through a bit further ... and regarding possibly paying the deposit in a day or three, and after we communicate about this further. If I paid a $500 deposit soon (I would be in Pgh on 8/28/23 at 2pm for ex.), say by Sunday, and then a $1250 deposit on Monday when you got to Pgh, totalling $1750, I would have paid the 1750 before you depart with my things to Canyon 94516 arriving 9/1/23 - and you would have received the deposit. And if you had a breakdown or equipment malfunction after getting the $500, say on Monday, on the way to Pgh PA, and you arrived after 2pm due to the equipment malfunction, then I wouldn't have to see if the credit card company could stop payment on the $500. Am aware there is much trickery in the world - and am thus seeking to protect us both, such that you get the deposit before we depart on Monday 8/28/23, after 2pm, and I lessen the chances of losing money, if you called me up with an equipment failure, on Monday, for example. Please let me know what you think.

Thanks, best, Scott

Shamuan, (All),

thank you so much too. What happens if you don't show up at 141 N Braddock avenue, Pgh PA 15221 on Monday 8/28/23 due to equipment malfunction, for example? What recourse do you have to refund the money? What recourse do I have? How would refunding the money work? Could I pay the deposit please when you arrive on Monday in Pgh PA at 2pm potentially?. 

I would prefer if possible please to pay the deposit upon your arrival in Pgh, or pay part of the deposit now, such as $500, and part of the deposit upon your arrival, such as the remainder of $1,250.00? What do you think? Would that work for you? 

Thanks, 

Scott

Thanks, Shamuan (at Pal for Moving 804-401-2575), All, 

Good to talk with you just now in Virginia.

Thanks for the quote of $3500 for everything (van, your time and costs, gas, tolls), and that you'll send a contract in the next hour or two or  so.

See you Monday at 2pm in Pittsburgh Pa 15221 at 141 N Braddock Ave at Extra Space Storage and then traveling (separately ) west to the 670 Ridgecrest Road Canyon CA 94516 arriving on Friday 9/1/23.

Hi Shamuan (at Pal for Moving 804-401-2575), All, 

Thanks for your emails again. Jim Spohrer, whom I was waiting to hear back from, just shared these (attached) aerial photos from Google Maps with me. 

I'll call you between noon and 1 Eastern Time today, soon, and talk further, as I think through next steps for moving forward into an open newly safe 670 Ridgecrest Road, Canyon CA 94516, potentially in communication with you, a MIT network of alumni, and the California state senate (which I've emailed 5 times about these questions - and per the district 7 California state senate office in Orinda, CA, about 8 miles from Canyon 94516 in the East Bay of the SF Bay Area).

Thanks,

Mr. Shamuan (at Pal for Moving), All, 

Thanks for your email this morning. A 3 drawer wood file cabinet, part of a separable Ikea larger piece of furniture, is probably the largest and heaviest item I have. But I think I need to wait a little longer to hear back from a number of people about the house I'm planning to move to in Canyon 94516 on F 9/1/23 before scheduling. Please see: 

Hi Jim (Spohrer), 

Thanks so much for your email and the information. Am currently in the process of scheduling potentially TODAY a mover (Shamaun Powell of Pal for Movers of Richmond VA) of my things from Pgh PA 15208 to 670 Ridgecrest Rd Canyon CA 94516 departing Monday 8/28/23 and arriving at the Canyon CA 94516 Post Office or 670 Ridgecrest Rd Canyon 94516  on Friday 9/1/23 ... and for thinking about what might be helpful regarding possible open dwellings in this one 670 Ridgecrest Rd  house - and regarding if they are empty and available. 

I've let - 

Ed (Smyth MD), CA Senator Steve Glazer (district 7), Byron (Hann MD), John (Sargent MD), Sid (Mazumdar HHS), PETER NORVIG (Google AI), Jane MacLeod (Ma), All,

- know that I've inquired whether you could scout this out, but now that I've heard back from you initially, I think I need to inquire further with some of them if they could scout out this house. I think I should also let Shamaun Powell know - who says he can move my things per this schedule, greatly, - that I need to learn a few further things about the condition of 670 Ridgecrest Rd Canyon CA 94516 house before I schedule with him, and will try to let Shamaun know as soon as I hear back from you or someone else familiar with this house's availability and regarding state of CA and US federal law and law enforcement.  Ed Smyth MD also expressed concerns many months ago about his and his family's safety after precipitating my moving back into 670 Ridgecrest Rd Canyon CA 94516. Am wondering who from the US federal government (beyond Sid Mazumdar HHS above), and related US federal law enforcement, might be involved in this house situation too, and thanks to Ed Smyth MD's precipitation. 

Thanks, regards, Scott

https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/Canyon 

Mr. Shamuan, I'll seek to get in touch with you as soon as I learn more about the openness of the house in Canyon 94516 - which could be later today, or in the next few days. Thank you.

Thanks, Shamuan, (friends, all),

Let me look into it, and thanks for the info (re the $3500 quote). Am probably taking a GMaps''no tolls' route on or near Interstate 80 in a Toyota Prius ... but which probably goes through mountains too ... and I hear you that 40 is best for Truckers. In your traveling by 40 from Pgh PA to Canyon 94516, is a Friday 9/1/23 ETA a possibility for you?

 

I'm attaching a pic for the pretty full 5x10 Extra Space Storage Unit storage unit in Pgh PA to give you an idea of the stuff I'm seeking to move. Any other information I could provide you? Maybe talk in the morning? 

Thanks again for your help,

Scott

So yea the quote was for it I could add your load to somebody else’s load going that way! Being as though it is going by itself I would have to charge the full price!! Let me ask you a question do you happen to have pics of what’s going?? And we took 40 west last time which was best from Richmond! The Rockies are terrible on trucks so 40 is honestly the flattest way to California and best for Truckers!! Send me a detailed list of what’s in the storage and ima see if I can put something together for you! May have to get atleast 3500! First let’s just see how much the load is!! Send me pics or a list of everything going! Thanks so much for your help and understanding hopefully we can put something together!!

Mr. Powell (Pal For Moving - 804-401-2575 - palppl2020@gmail.com), friends, 

Thank you for your quick email reply.  Congratulations on your first cross-country moving trip earlier this month.  Unfortunately, the amount you mention this time would break my bank, and I thank you for your $2500 initial quote on the phone. I'm going to look further into Budget and UHaul etc. tow dollies  for front wheels of car and then a small sized truck to tow this, and also check Craigslist again further. In what ways could I negotiate with you? Might you be able to do this move for me for $3000 which you also quoted on the phone initially? 

And could you take a "no tolls" route too with Google Maps like I plan to do heading west from Pgh PA 15208 to Canyon CA 94516 in my car to bring your costs down significantly (and from Richmond VA too)? (,Have you used the helpful and cost saving Google Maps' App before?)  What if you get a possible few further loads of furniture to move at the same time before Monday - as you suggested you would on the phone too? Thank you for getting back to me in email immediately, and I look forward to hearing from you.

Thanks again, Scott MacLeod
