Alex,

 

Many years ago on the first MOMS tour I was involved with the trucking
companies I contacted gave me  liver damage high prices. After I was
resuscitated it became clear our only realistic option was to make funds
available to the participating sites to rent a truck ( if they needed) and
let them go pick up the exhibit at the previous site. After four tours that
is still how we do it. We have had only one crunch incident, last year,
where a panel  and crate was damaged in transit.  Exactly how I have no
idea.  But we've had no other complaints!

Hi everyone,

 

We're new to MOMS and in the process of courting a local truck driving
school to help move the exhibit from site to site. We've never contracted
anyone in this capacity. Does anyone with some similar experience have a
sample contract they might be able to share?

 

Thanks,
