Moving across country is going to be soooooo expensive. I shudder to think about it. I've started looking for rates on moving trucks and they range from $800 with Budget and $1600 with Uhaul. Uhaul automatically gives you 9 days. I only need 4-5, so no thanks Uhaul.

There are just some things I don't want to get rid of, mail, or give away and that I can't fit in my car. Come May there might be a lot of free college furniture up for grabs if any one is interested.

4 Remarks:

Be sure to look at the fine print and see if there is a "per mile" charge as well. I believe U-haul tacks that on (perhaps you already took that into consideration with the price quote listed). Our friends rented a Penske truck. Did you check their rates? There's a discount if you have an AAA membership (which we don't have, but our friends did).

I looked into all kinds of these things before moving, and then realized I could live without a lot of my things for now. Someday when we buy a house then we'll do the whole moving truck thing and bring it all down to Texas. Yay for parents storing things in the meantime.

Yeah, I took that into consideration. Uhaul is ridiculous. Budget has unlimited miles.
