[quote=Anonymous]Is it worth it to pay the movers ...heck yes and say this as someone that is frugal.  I also agree with the PP that said past a certain age (and with real furniture) it isn't cool to ask your friends to help move for pizza and beer.  Our parents are in their 70's and could hurt themselves helping.  Our friends are in their 40's and barely have free time on the weekends with all their own family responsibilities.

How to get DH on board, that's tough.  The only compromise I can think of is he has to move the heavy stuff over with enough time that you can hire someone if that doesn't work out.  That may mean you spend the uhaul money plus movers and may need to be flexible to be squeezed in somewhat last minute with movers but thats the best compromise.  While not at the level of moving, when we have had appliances break, DH will sometimes try to fix it himself.  We agree it is worth up to maybe $100 to have the possibility of foregoing having to spend maybe nearly $1000  (realizing we could end up overall spending more by making this attempt).  We have a backup plan, i.e what if our attempt to "save" money isn't working and agree on a timeframe of how long before we need to go to plan B/be inconvenienced while seeing if plan A will pan out.[/quote]
