CLV has got to be fairly low? It's more a one time transaction than an Uber-like relationship. How often do people need movers.

@brackin Was thinking this too. Although 'moving' doesn't always have to mean 'moving all my stuff' I suppose, the same way Uber begged the 'how many people use black cars regularly' question early on.

@dshan @brackin yeah we've actually done more Lugg's that are craigslist and ikea/west elm purchases.

@brackin @jordanbrown Indeed! I poked around a bit more - you're almost wedging a major CL/Taskrabbit use case. Great idea.

Hey all. Jordan from Lugg here. Happy to answer any questions! Lugg instantly connects you to a truck and two movers. Whether your doing an ikea run, a craigslist purchase, or moving apartments you should never have to worry about needing a truck. Oh and stop bothering that one friend that does have a truck. ;) Thanks for having us on here!

No need to answer here, but always find it helpful to understand 1st ux and I think the below is a snapshot into the mind of the 30yo newly married female. hope this helps. best, andy "That's awesome! Any probs with stealing? Background check issues? You know, a la uber?"

@bootstrapnyc hey Andrew thanks for sharing! Yes we background and vet every mover/truck owner onto the system. It's definitely something we aren't taking lightly.

@bootstrapnyc @jordanbrown Hey Jordan! I've been working on software that helps automate a lot of the applicant screening process for on-demand companies (including the bg checks!). Would love to get in touch and see if we can help!

@jordanbrown Very cool idea. I worked on this concept for a few months and think it's a brilliant idea. I ultimately pulled out after talking to a few folks who had tried it but think there is a great opportunity here. Wishing you guys the best of luck! Here was my original plan for the product. Learned a lot if you are ever interested in grabbing coffee. http://www.slideshare.net/Jamorr...

I like it conceptually but how often are people moving big stuff WITHOUT planning in advance? Maybe I'm just OCD about that stuff (I've moved 2 times in the last 2 years) and each time we planned like a week or two in advance. Would love to hear the thought process behind this.

@ajt I'm not affiliated with Lugg, but can weigh in on my experiences. When I moved, I sold most of my large items and bought new things on Craigslist and stores when I arrived. I would rent a zipcar everytime, which got tedious since its hard to estimate how long you'll need it (always ended up being at least 3 hours). Not to mention, you have to roundup friends to go with you if its really heavy. I would think the biggest use case is people without cars buying one-off items on craigslist or furniture stores (and don't want to pay the delivery fee).

I used Lugg last night and loved it. Movers were at my place within 30 minutes. Quick. Efficient. Friendly. Zero hassle.
