Kevin Bollins is a 24-year old college student who is trying to balance school and work, while still having some fun once and a while. In addition to helping his friends whenever they need Movers, Kevin plays competitive beach volleyball and he's in training for the next Olympic tryouts. He hopes one day finally reach the point where he can leave all moving to the professionals at the Moving Companies, but in the meantime, he’s happy to know there are alternatives.
In the current economic climate, money is tighter than ever before. School is expensive, and when you add in the cost of books and living costs, all of the money from your summer job is pretty much gone. So, to save some cash, I found a roommate and a new apartment to share with him, and then it was time to move all of my stuff. I don't have a big budget to cover moving expenses, so I put a call out to all of my college buddies to come over and help me out; after all, I’d done the same for most of them.
Right away we hit a roadblock -no one can drive a moving truck. I start to panic a little bit as I think about having to take out a loan from my parents to cover the costs. Nobody wants to go home and ask mom and dad for cash when they're in their twenties, so I had to look around for another way to get my stuff to my new apartment. After a little digging around on the internet, I found the perfect thing at a site called www.upack.com. Instead of paying one of the Moving Companies to pack and haul everything I own, or risking my life trying to drive a massive moving truck, I can do the heavy lifting and leave the driving to a professional. Perfect! The guys are happy to show up and pack my stuff up, and a couple of days later everything shows up at my new place. Another call to the guys to help me unpack, and we finished it all off by eating a whole bunch of pizza, drinking a few beers, and watching the football game on my new roommate's big screen television. Sometimes, everything works out perfectly.
