So the reason im asking this is because i just bought the mansion in Solitude and i am starting to move all of my collected gear to my new house. And quite naturally i have thousands of pounds of gear, is there any skill to unlock that allows me to fast travel while overweight or do i have to transport all my gear bit by bit.

Thanks

no, the closest thing to that is a perk in the pickpocketing tree which unlocks 100 more carrying capacity. or jump on a horsy ;p

You could probably test this by the time you logged the post.
No. You can't.

EDIT : The horse would work to travel faster, but not fast travel. If you have the Dead Thrall spell. You can load them up and fast travel.

You can fast travel while overencumbered by potions, or if you get on a horse.

You can fast travel while overencumbered if you get on your horse then fast travel where you want to go.

Ah! then I stand corrected.

Yea finding that out was great it a good reason to buy a horse early in the game.

Also, if u have whirlwind sprint u can still use that while over encumbered so once u fast travel on ur horse to solitude, u can use the whirlwind sprint to get to ur house a little faster.
Just a little note, DONT fast travel on shadowmere if hes ur horse cuz he WILL die its a weird bug but i learned it the hard way.

Also for moving stuff from house to house.. i ordered my follower to empty the chests and they obeyed and i didn't have to carry anything.

They take everything including stacks? Nice to know, I knew you could get them to pick things up from the floor, but it don't work for stacks, it, takes time and things can get lost.
I assume this also work on chests in dungeons and bodies?
Fill an spider with load of dwarven metal pieces and ask Lydia to search it?
