Just out of curiosity, what's the time-line of all these events? It sounds like it was over the course of 24 hours starting in the bar(?). In which case she sounds to me like an emotional drama queen.
They go to a bar, break up, she calls you in the morning, you move her furniture out in the afternoon, she goes back late afternoon for more stuff, he starts blubbering, she and the bf come by early evening to move the stuff back?
"What do I do the next time this happens?...and it will."
Next time, hire movers on her dime. Distance yourself/family from the moving. She has to see that her drama and decisions have repercussions that involve more than mommy and daddy. You'll be there to emotionally support her. But let her wallet feel a bit of the pinch and lets see how fast she wizens up. Cold? nah. Lesson learned.
