Well, since your current house is called "Byrne Manor", and I feel that
this new house is more of a "pad", I was thinking something along the
lines of "Byrne's Pad of Wonder" or "Alpha Pad."

Having been a bachelor for my first forty years, the hardest part of
moving, was finding the eating establishments to adopt, Even more so
for someone who works out of their home. Now I eat where my wife
tells me to eat.
Of course JB wouldn't need a dumpster or even garbage bags for the move
.... after all the stuff he wants is moved out, just post Stately Byrne
Manor's address on JBF and it will be picked clean in a few hours ....
"Look a JB Q-tip, its only been used on one end!"
Of double course you could never ever have a signing table again

Having been to Stately Byrne Manor a few times, I can only say the
mind boggles at the task ahead of you, JB. Three floors, all your
stuff, the art, the art files, the books, more stuff................man oh
man, it's gonna be the 13th Labor of Hercules moving you out. I do
have a couple of suggestions:
1) Yard Sale! or
2) I will move furniture for original art.................
WO

Best of luck to you on the purchase of your new home, sale of your old and of course, your move...I made my wife promise me that we'd never have to move again (barring a lottery win, of course).

Must be something in the air. I've been in the same home for nearly thirteen years now and Mrs. Dan and I are considering moving in the Fall or next Spring. I've renovated all but two rooms in this 100+ year old house and need to get those two (kitchen and formal dining room) done, replace a few more windows, and probably put new siding on before I'd consider the house sellable. I've got my summer cut out for me, it seems.
The wife has her eye on a 10 acre lot of lakeside property about 20 miles outside of Spokane.

JB - will this be a move that you and your friends will do or does it require the services of a moving company. I would think you would need a moving company, but I could be wrong.

Moving company! Definitely!! I haven't moved myself since I rented a truck to carry some of the more breakable items from the brownstone in Brooklyn Heights up to Stately Byrne Manor, closing on 20 years ago.

One of the things the realator will tell you is to de-clutter and
de-personalize your home, so that the new owners can imagine the
home with their own stuff. When I sold my previous house, I
rented from a mini-storage near my new home and put in most of my good
stuff and left only the basics in the house. I found I actually
liked the de-cluttered look. When I did sell the house (three
weeks after being on the market) it made it much easier to pack up and
move when I did have to go. Too bad my new house was twice the
size, I now have more crap than ever!!
