9 feet!!!

So how many feet do we think our possessions fit into? I know I gave it away in the heading.

we downsized a good deal passing along freebies of toys, clothes, odds and ends to friends, family and even a plumber and goodwill.  The plumber came to fix the tub hot water tap that trickled.  Nice to know that the next people who live there don't need to snuggle up to the shower head to get wet...I had requested it to be repaired years ago. But I was told it was a different problem ...long story short it was readdressed and fixed within the same week.  The visiting plumbers enjoyed Kent and Leon's questions and comments and also liked leaving with our tv and dinning room table and 6 chairs.  Sweet! 

As my brothers James and Lloyd sat amongst our crud we discussed how many feet in this 28 ft trailer that is 8ft wide and 9 ft tall on the inside. You pay for a minimum of 5 feet and then each additional foot is $81. We had a few scary conversations before the loading began and then during.  I figured it is what it is. Hopefully we aren't paying more than would have cost if we just got a 16 foot truck and drove it ourselves, pulling our second vehicle behind.   It is a different loading and thought process when you care about the space occupied.  Wade, Lloyd, James, Chad, Joel were Tetris masterminds.  9 feet was the grand total after wade and Joel sEcured the bulk head.  The company then fills the remaining space with commercial goods.  They transport the trailer for us.  No hidden costs. It went exactly as they told and quoted.
