re: Hiring movers to go across the country

How much stuff are we talking about?

I’ve done multiple day drives in a Uhaul a few times now. It’s not ideal, but not bad.

26’ truck (smaller trucks weren’t much cheaper and gas mileage is about the same at 10-11mpg), fuel, and hotels were about $2k each time. A POD was about $4k for less space and that curbside/driveway option didn’t work for me.

Uhaul and Penske allow for cancellation 24hrs in advance. Book both. Call to cancel the day before and they will give a huge discount. Penske cut the rate from $3k to about $1300.
