If you’ve spent the past few months working remotely in a cramped city apartment, we have good news for youand it involves a moving truck. According to a recent Zillow report, nearly 2 million renters who aren’t able to upgrade to a bigger space in their current metro areas might be able to afford the average U.S. starter home. It all comes down to the zip code. https://www.domino.com//where-are-starter-homes-affordable/

It's difficult to tell if we manage to draw the right clients or the right employees but either way, we're incredibly thankful for how well they all get along. We would be nowhere without all of you.

Guess who knows you've moved faster then your friends find out? Junk mail companies! Junk mail burdens your mailbox, clutters your desk and it's bad for the planet - What are your best tips for getting rid of unwanted mailers? The Money Crashers website recommends:... 1. Sign Up with DMAchoice One of the biggest categories of junk mail is direct mail, or advertising that shows up in your mailbox. It includes fliers announcing the opening of a new store, coupons, catalogs, magazine offers, retail promotions, and offers from all sorts of other businesses, such as banks and insurance companies. Companies send out direct mail for one reason: to attract new customers. It’s not in their interest to spend money sending mail to people who will just toss it straight in the bin, so these companies are generally happy to remove you from their mailing lists if you ask. About 80% of all companies that send direct mail are members of the DMA, formerly known as the Direct Marketing Association. The DMA runs a website called DMAchoice to let consumers opt out of mailings from its members. For a $2 processing fee, the site lets you block direct mail to your name and address for 10 years. Once you create a profile on the site, you can add up to five versions of your name and up to five addresses...https://www.moneycrashers.com/get-less-junk-mail/

A 4th great way to savor October! (if you missed the previous 3, check out last week's posts) "Make something, bake something, read something." If the change in seasons and the darker evenings has you feeling like staying in, make use of the cozy evenings to be creative while connecting with friends:... A. Learn to knitor finish that knitting project you started a while back. Make easy gifts and deliver them to coworkers, friends, and/or neighbors. Watch a great tutorial here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ONVQCK_-rKc B. Make any of these beautiful autumn-themed crafts alone or 6-feet apart with friends in a park or backyard https://www.countryliving.com/diy-crafts/g1533/fall-crafts/ C. Make weeknights cozy with a mid-week soup night for yourself and family to savor. Any of these hearty soup recipes make more than enough to fill some mason jars and leave with a note at a neighbor’s or friend’s doorstep. https://www.theloop.ca/19-hearty-soups-you-can-whip-up-in-/ D. Take the idea of a book club up a notch. Combine cooking with a book club to form a cookbook club! With a small group of neighbors and friends, pick a monthly cookbook and meet once a month in a socially safe meetup to sample each other’s dishes from the book. Or, use this list of The 50 Funniest Books Ever Written, and inspire an LOL book club among friends https://www.barnesandnoble.com//50-funniest-books-ever-wr/

We never know what a city will be like when we deliver there for the first time but #ogdenutah delighted our team with actual fall weather, walkable dining choices like Lucky Slice Pizza, curiously strong coffee Wasatch Roasting Company and surprisingly good truck parking ;-) If you're thinking of moving to Utah, that's perfect, because we want an excuse to go back :)

"The best wines are the ones we drink with those we love." Day 3 of how to savor October: Load up the household and visit a winery! California offers welcoming outdoor weather all year round, and often its wineries offer the best scenery in the fall. Enjoy a scenic drive to a winery (or craft brewery if you prefer) that practices social distancing and respects the environment, like this one Villa Creek in Paso Robles, which takes reservations.... #villacreek #October2020 #socialdistancing #camelotmovers See more

#October2020 Day 2 of sharing ways to enjoy October! Nature Calls ;-) If the heat of summer and choking air of forest fires kept you indoors the last 4 to 6 weeks, you may be eager to reengage with the green outdoors. SoCal offers great hiking weather throughout the four seasons, and the insects and poison oak are less invasive in the fall! Search your local city for recommended hikes and trails to motivate you to get out and see the changing landscape. If you live near Los Angeles, find a hidden hiking gem among the suggestions found here (https://bit.ly/3nofmOU). Text a friend and tell them to grab a mask and meet you in the hills! #hikela #camelotmovers #SocialDistancing

It's October! We are so excited and grateful for the change in seasons and in an effort to try and make the most of any good that comes our way, we have scoured the Internet to find the best list of autumn-themed activities. As a result, we’re motivated to revel in the new season by making wonderful memories with friends and family while honoring social-distancing guidelines to protect each other. Each day this week we will share one Autumn-themed and social distancing savvy ...way to enjoy the Fall...so, here we go! 1. Take a City Tour - Tired of only finding solace in nature over the past 6+ months? How about a walking city tour? Big cities and small towns alike offer self-guided walking tours that highlight historic buildings, local folklore, street art, etc. With the cooler temperatures and lighter traffic of autumn (even lighter on a weekend morning), plan a walking tour with a friend who respects a mask and can hang 6 feet apart. Check out guided tours here: https://www.laconservancy.org/tours
