No moves are simple, but some moves are wilder than all others. Few know this better than Stephanie S., who had to orchestrate a few moves at the same time: her move back to the U.S. after spending a few years living in Australia, her tenants\u2019 move out from the property she rented to them (and was hoping to sell soon), and the move of her own stuff from the basement of the rental property to storage. With three pending moves on the horizon, Stephanie knew she needed moving help – but wasn\u2019t quite sure who to ask.<\/span><\/p>\n

Moving On & Moving Out<\/b><\/h2>\n

In addition to moving back to the U.S., Stephanie was also coming off a quarter century spent in a unique career: \u201cI moved back after living and working in Australia with Seeing Eye Dogs. I have trained guide for people who are blind and train the people with those dogs for 25 years in a few different countries.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Training these dogs is a hard job – though it certainly has its perks. \u201cI love dogs, especially the affectionate ones that love to be cuddled and hugged!\u201d One of her trainee dogs, a German Shepherd who has since started work as a Seeing Eye Dog in British Columbia, even got to visit Stephanie\u2019s home in Portland that she was preparing to sell. <\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

So it was with plenty emotion (not to mention stress) that Stephanie prepared for her moved. \u201cI had some things stored in the basement of the house that I needed to move out in preparation for the sale. The tenants were moving out later, but I wouldn\u2019t be in the country when they vacated, so I had to move my things out during that particular week.\u201d Thankfully, she quickly figured out who to ask for help.<\/span><\/p>\n

Moving Made Easy<\/b><\/h2>\n
\"\"
Stephanie needed Michael\u2019s help moving furniture out of the house and into a storage unit.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

\u201cI heard about <\/span>Dolly<\/span><\/a> from my very good friend, Dennis, who also does gigs for Dolly as a Helper in Portland.\u201d She knew that Dolly\u2019s simple app would make moving a breeze. \u201cSo\u2026fast forward to me using Dolly. I was so impressed and pleased with the entire process.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Stephanie\u2019s Helper, Michael, was the perfect assistant for her move. \u201cI was impressed with how Michael knew how to pack the truck and organize my things in the unit so efficiently. I moved a furniture and boxes of photos and random things, all placed into a 5\u2019 by 5\u2019 storage unit.\u201d It was a tight fit, but Michael made it work. <\/span><\/p>\n

On her overall Dolly experience, Stephanie kept her thoughts simple: \u201cDolly is a great idea and a great company!\u201d And we\u2019re sure her dogs\u2019 tails are wagging in agreement.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Whether you\u2019re moving out, moving in, or moving your stuff around so your doggo has more room, we\u2019re here to help. With <\/span>Dolly<\/span><\/a>, you can get truck and muscle for all your moving and delivery needs, anytime you need it. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
