At least 3 and 1/4 full sized truck loads.
Early last fall a cousin,my brother and I were asked to move our aunt and uncle's "batching" outfit home from a Missouri ONE ROOM church parsonage.
At my mothers insistance and in spite of our Aunt claiming all they had was a "batching" outfit we took two full sized trucks and a 20 foot trailer and decided not to take the third truck after all how much can you get into 1 room?
It took us 4 hours(got lost in part of the Mark Twain national forest) to reach the Missouri church and then another 3 hours to load and strap down the 8 foot tall mounds we had to pack on the trailer and 2 trucks. (Duct tape and lots of nylon string.)
We still had stuff left over and we ended up driving home with the truck cab packed nearly solid around us with most of the extra stuff.
We arrived at our Aunt and Uncle's house after a 3 hour drive and had just unpacked ourselves from the cab and crawled out when my Aunt drives up and informs us she needed us to unpack and set up the couch, love seat, a bed, a dressers and 2 chest in her house along with carrying in everything else.
When that day was done the three of use were promising ourselve and each other that it was going to take shotguns to get us to move anymore of our relatives anytime soon.
