Moving with wine

[wineguruchgo]

Hello Newbie.

When are you moving and why is it taking so long?

I'm planning on moving from Chicago to Cali in less than 4 weeks and I'm considering 3 days for the move.

Here's what I would do. If the wine is really important to you I would ship the wine UPS to your new house. It shouldn't take them more than a couple of days and it will stay in their warehouse which should be heated/airconditioned. The wine will wait for you.

If you want to take them with you here's what I would do. I'm going to take my wines and put them between the mattresses in the UHaul truck. I'm hoping it will both insulate the wines from frost and heat. I plan on moving in early May so I should be protected from both.

One can only hope.

Ps - I'm moving with 30+ cases yet only 8 are worth anything!
