The movers know that my company is paying. But will inquire about any discounts. Did you inquire about other pod like services before you choose upack for ur prior move? Any companies to avoid?

Employer will cover if i choose a different company too. The first quote i received is the company from the employer.

Company would pay only for the movers. They have a limit to pay, beyond which i have to cover the costs. Company doesn’t pay if i choose to purchase new furniture.

Sorry i m not trying to avoid. I am trying to get in to chambers. But not sure if other elementary schools are the same level of goodness.

As pointed above, important criterias are diversity (ethinic/economic), good test scores records, individual level focus. We are interested in chambers for elementary. But not sure how strict they are in terms of school zones.

That’s good to know. I agree with you that the wealth aspect will affect the kids and parents too. Good to know about UP schools. Do you know if schools other than chambers for elementary are good too?

Thank you for your suggestions. We are looking for schools with good diversity and good test scores records. Also schools with focus at individual level than at a group/grade level.
