get someone who speaks korean to hook you up with a bongo truck ajosshi.
should cost about 30,000 won for an hour or so, might be slightly more if you want him to help you with lifting. |

I'm also moving tomorrow. It's not too difficult to set up getting a truck. I did it a few months ago when I moved from Cheongdam to Mapo-gu and it cost 70,000 won. The reason being is he helped me quite a bit and the whole thing took about 3 hours.
Like someone else said, the trick is to find a Korean to call the company and set it up for you. Make sure to have them give the moving company both your old and new address. |

hnmmm....the wife and I are moving this summer. Do they provide you with boxes to pack your crap in? I heard some moving companies here do EVERYTHING for you. Is this true? |
