We are going to do U-Pack. It's cheaper than PODS. They basically drop off a smaller Semi-Trailer at your house. You fill it will your stuff, and then you install a provided bulkhead. They charge you for the linear feet of the truck you use. When Nicole moved out here from Chicago she used 11 linear ft, packed all the way to the ceiling.

If you even see smaller semi-tailers on the Interstate that are gray with the letters "ABF" on them, that is U-Pack. 1/2 the cost of traditional movers and 1/3 cheaper than uhaul and PODS.

The trailer has a ramp, but because it's a standard height semi-trailer is taller and ramp is steeper than a uhaul.

They give you 3 days to fill the trailer and 3 days to empty it. We emptied ours in 3 hours, and they came back later that afternoon to collect the trailer.
