I did reach out to the American Legion posts in both states and they said they will do what they can to help. I also contacted the DAV and they are working on a quote for me!

I know our Amvets Riders love getting out helping other veterans. Even their Son&#39;s or Auxiliary may be able to help. Good luck!

Had to call moving companies for help at a cost of thousands of $$$. On a fixed income would have loved some volunteers to help a 100% rated veteran in a wheelchair to some point. But, it is a crap shoot if you find help or not just have $$$ either way.

Years ago, I was lucky enough to get the High School Wrestling Team to help me move my apartment into a storage unit, before a cross-country move. You can also check to see if your city, county or state has a senoir agency that may know of other resources. Good Luck to you.

Usually the smaller /local places can offer some deals, versus the corporate chains. 1st Lt Teah Pelliccione Thu, 21 Mar 2024 11:36:00 -0400 2024-03-21T11:36:00-04:00 Response by SSG Mike Zientek made Mar 24 at 2024 8:26 PM https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/where-can-ask-for-physical-help-moving?n=8707555&urlhash=8707555 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Check with your local Veterans organizations.<br />VFW’s, American Legion, DAV, Wounded Warrior Project, Marine Corps League, Veterans Service Officers, etc.<br /><br />As a VFW Post Commander, we exist to Serve Veterans and their Families.
