Emergency moving help needed

Some neighbors here in Northwood are losing their home (they rent, and the landlord was foreclosed, but never told them).

They are a family of five, and desperately need to get all of their belongings transferred to a storage unit (106 Storage) in Concord.

They have a small utility trailer, so any vehicles (trucks, vans, additional trailers) that can haul a lot on a single trip would be extremely helpful.

Sounds like the sheriffs are expected to show up and lock them out, sometime tomorrow.  Any help would be extremely appreciated (from what I've heard, they are utterly exhausted).  If a bunch of liberty folks showed up and rescued them, that seems like it would be great PR.  Plus, it's just a nice thing to do for some folks in dire straits.

If you know my (or Denise's) number, call for directions.  If you know where our house is, we'll either post directions on the door, or someone will be here.  I'm going to head over in a few minutes to help as much as I can.  Or post here - we'll try and have someone check these threads.

Update: I just stopped by to survey the situation, and they're quite desperate.  It's about a 2000sf house, and the sheriff may be there as early as 10:00AM tomorrow (or may not show up until later, but you never know, with cops - maybe we can have folks distract him with donuts if he does show)

They did offer pizza and beer to anyone who can help rescue them.  They also need a moderately-sized electric fridge, as they will be moving into and RV, and the gas fridge is busted.

Joe just stopped by to check messages; there's a handful of us over there, right now.  The more, the merrier, though, as there's some larger furniture... (it's really not far from our house, and I (Denise) am home, so if you need directions, stop by and I'll point you in the right direction)

We got a lot moved, today, but there's plenty more to do, tomorrow.

Maybe some opportunity to try and talk the sheriff into giving them more time, if he does show up, for those who like trying to convince cops that compassion is a better route.

If anyone is still available (either to load in Northwood, or to unload at the storage unit, which I believe is in Concord), please call Joe or I. Thanks, they really appreciate the rescue...

 You people are awsome ! I wish I was there so I could help out .

We did another run, this morning/early-afternoon.

They have a moving van to help with transportation, now, too.  We're planning to head back over...

Thanks to those who have showed up to help.  Looks like the sheriff won't be there, today, but who knows what tomorrow may bring.  We're hoping to get as much moved out as possible, just in case.

We got a couple loads, yesterday (the second one with the addition of a moving van that they were able to get; one was not available the day before.

We're meeting there again today at about 10:00.  I think we have four folks already lined up, in addition to the family.  Any other help would be useful, as much of the furniture still has to be moved (they've been concentrating on personal possessions, since furniture can be replaced, even if it would be a huge expense, and there's no telling what the cops will end up doing.  If they make it through today, I suppose that means they have the whole weekend, and probably Monday, as I doubt anyone's making a special trip to lock them out on a weekend or holiday.
