My friend Karin Paparelli came with me in her minivan a couple of months ago to pick up a 65″ HDTV that I had bought. After seeing how big it truly was, including the stand, we both agreed that no reasonable person would try to fit it in the van. Actually, while I was out of earshot, the guy I was buying it from told Karin, “I would never do this (try to fit this expensive t.v. into this minivan for a precarious ride home).” Karin replied, “I know, neither would my husband.” However, Karin and I share a little bit of that… what would you call it(?)… risk-taking personality, fearlessness, ingenuity… no, let’s go with impatience, and impulsiveness, and there was no way we were making another trip to Nolensville for this thing. So after much planning and maneuvering, and tethering down the back door which wasn’t even close to being able to shut, we finally got my monstrosity of a t.v. into the van. I’m pleased to say that after the hour drive home, it made it up to my bonus room in pristine, working condition, thank you very much. After sharing our adventure with a few people, we decided that maybe one day Karin and I would go into business as “Make it Fit Movers.” Catchy, don’t cha think?

Well, I was reminded of this today after I bought a new 9′ Christmas tree for Steph and me. I got to thinking, “Wow, this is a really big box (and ninety-five pounds), and I’ve got to get this into my car somehow. I don’t know anyone with a truck who could come help me. Maybe I could get one of these guys in the parking lot with a truck to help me; I live just around the corner. No, I’LL MAKE IT FIT.” LOL

So, MAKE IT FIT MOVERS is open for business. Here’s yet another shining example of our work. If you have your own “Make it Fit Movers” story and photos, please post them and make me aware of them in the ‘comments’ below!
