 Brace yourself for this frustration, and don't expect any thanks for it //(you won't get it)//. But **somebody's gotta do it**, right? So once you've set up a shelf, unloaded a pallet and tossed the pallet outside you'll have some more space to work. Keep doing this until you've got enough space and can actually start organizing stuff. //(You'll still get lots unappreciative comments unfortunately.)//
+==== Purge Phase ====

+==== Pack Phase ====
+Anything not on pallets will not be packed.

+==== Move Out Phase ====
+Our move into storage took 15 hours, including truck logistics.
+Pick a day, as far in the future as reasonable to allow members to spread the word and clear their schedules. Weekends are best, open house nights will work in a pinch.
+Start early in the morning.  Members are available at all sorts of times, so this will enable them to come in for a bit and help as their schedules allow, all day.
+Pull the trigger. Reserve a rental truck (solicit at least 2, up to 4 drivers that are available throughout the day). A 16 foot box truck with a lift gate is ideal. No commercial license is required, but **make sure** it has a lift gate, not a ramp.
+Post the date on the forums/mailing list/blog/social media. Encourage non-members to help out and become part of the community.
+Have a script
+  * Where the players need to be (truck pickup, old location, new location, etc)
+  * Where their vehicles need to be parked, how the players are getting to their location
+-----
+==== Move Out Phase ====
+*There is a slope down from the road to the loading bay at Cook St, and the garage door is not very tall.* Large trucks *will not fit*, so must be parked on the median and palettes moved across the street. Plywood ramps and walkways over the dirt will be required!
+Bring:
+a cordless drill to repair pallets; better than hammer and nails
+heavy-duty cart or dolly
+a pallet jack (one at both spaces and one in the back of the moving truck)
+bottled water
+snacks
+Suggestions to increase efficiency:
+it's easier to pull the pallet jack when loaded into the space through the corridor rather than push it
+have a person run the lift while loading
