Can't offer any advice on movers, but if you need a pair of hands, let me know. I have helped move quite a few people in the past couple years.

I could probably lend a hand, I have moved 5 times in the past 4 years, I think that counts as BTDT.

Don't know any movers local to you, but I can offer a bit of advice having moved more times than I remember.
- Box up everything possible.
- Have it staged prior to the mover showing up
- Mark the boxes clearly with where it needs to go.
This will save you some $$$ as most movers charge by the hour. A beer or two at the end of their day may help when they write up the time too...
I know some people in Moon and Sewickly, so I dropped them a line asking if they had any experiences. Will e-mail if they have anything worthwhile to say.
And congrats on the house!

If you haven't moved already, South Hills Movers out of Bethel Park are really good at short hops around the city, and have an excellent reputation.
