[quote=Anonymous]What are you offering these family members in return for their help? Are you offering them cash/money? Free food? Very generous gift cards to a store they actually shop at ($200 plus at minimum)? You need to put some skin the game and offer them something in compensation. Oh, and thank them profusely for their free labor. Send a follow-up, hand-written thank you card to everyone who helped. No, really. Moving stuff is damn hard work! Yes, they're family but they are unpaid labor risking serious injury to help you move. They could easily end up with a pulled lower-back muscle that never truly heals. Just hire a mover. It's worth the cost in family harmony.[/quote]
