I just had an idea re: moving my books

So as some of you know, I am moving to California and have to transport stuff across the border. Except moving companies are expensive. My major things are a bed, a printer, a piano keyboard, and a sewing machine, but the rest are pretty replaceable.
My books, not so much. I don't have enough books to warrant a 2500lbs minimum but that's still quite a hefty number of books.
SO, WHO WOULD LIKE TO BORROW MY BOOKS UNTIL THIS FALL?
It'll work like this:
1) I'll create a master list of the books I have and throw it up on Google Docs.
2) If you're interested in borrowing a book from me, write your name in. Try to keep it reasonable, because
3) I'll pack them in boxes and mail these books to you. I'll take care of the shipping.
4) You keep the boxes, because when you are done reading the books, and I'm safely ensconced in California, you can use that same box to mail the books back to me.
This way, I get to keep my books and get them transported to me anyway, and YOU get to read books you might not want to actually buy for yourself.
Thoughts?
