Meetup in Austin?
Moved here from CA. Hard to create a social circle from scratch. Anyone wants to go grab a beer or something?

Planning to move to Austin from Bay Area. 1. What is the cheapest way to move household items and cars 2. My house will be ready in September so it worth moving now and seeing the construction or just move in September ?
1. Pack everything youself/wrap furniture in thick shrink wrap. Rent big truck from Uhaul/Penske (Penske was cheaper 3+ years ago). Hire loaders/mover guys to load your truck and secure cargo inside. Professionals do it fast and they stack your shit like Tetris. If you have 2 cars, also get 4 wheel trailer/dolly and pull one car behind truck and make spouse drive another car in front of you(rental box truck lights suck, ours also had burned out driver side bulb). Once you get to destination, hire couple moving folks again to unload your truck for you(obliviously schedule ahead of time, like next day after arrival, just in case. Just pull mattresses out to sleep on first night, or get hotel). (About $200 for each load/unload 3 years ago, 2 bedroom apt worth of crap) 2. Heh, you are 100% sure it will be ready in Sept? I hear delay are still there in supply chain. Latest I heard - Windows and HVAC equipment. Another option- rent a moving pod. They ship container pod from driveway to driveway. You load it and they will deliver it after you called them to pick it up. Little bit more expensive than chepo method above, but less hustle. Driving 26 foot box truck with trailer behind while having shitty brakes and acceleration of a turtle is not a joke. (Almost got in accident couple of times because of shitty brakes)
What part of Austin are you moving to?
Lets see you last atleast a summer. Hope you're enjoying the wild temp swings. 78 and 26 in the same week.
Weather is no problem. Population density is…
