Julie And Candy posted:I had a smooth and good experience with ABF U-pack moving from Virginia to Colorado recently. I did the PODS-style ReloCube and moved all my stuff and including motorcycle in a single cube (I didn't bring any furniture except my mattress, though. Replacing all of it with IKEA poo poo was less expensive than a second cube). You can also rent trailers from them by the foot if you need a lot of space. Good stuff.

Shath Hole posted:I also did get an estimate from ABF which came in around $3400. The main mitigating factor for me was my move was at the end of December. While I'd driven rental trucks across town before, I really didn't feel confident in driving cross country in potentially snowy conditions. In fact, that car trip could have been an enjoyable jaunt if I wasn't paranoid about getting stuck in a storm so I went as far as I could each day to get to Vermont as quickly as possible. Of course the entire route turned out to be clear sailing with only a small amount of snow driving in OH and PA. Except packing the drat cubes! The Saturday morning I needed to fill them, we got a mini-storm that in a few hours dumped a few inches of wet slick snow that made the mere 20 foot trek from my house to the cubes nearly treacherous.

Sounds like a plan. If I were moving from April-ish through October-ish, I'd have driven too and pocketed the coin.

Paper With Lines posted:I think it got robbed but they weren't there to lock it back up so the PODS people wouldn't ship it to him. When he finally gets someone to lock it up, he calls it something like a mail order robbery. And yeah, seconding what Aquatic Giraffe said about driving stuff you can't afford to lose.
