I am in the process now of packing up my apartment to move this week. If you are moving with either a moving company or renting a truck, here a are a few tricks to get it done without spending a fortune.When scheduling a move try to be flexible. By picking a day mid week and mid month, prices can be significantly less than weekends and the end of the month.
Don't buy boxes and other packing materials from the truck rental companies. They mark up these items astronomically. Home Depot offers reusable moving boxes and other supplies for significantly less.
Movers are the way to go if you want to get it over quickly. If you want to save a few bucks, you can rent a truck and pack everything up yourself. When renting a truck, check your auto insurance policy...you may be covered and not need to spend the extra cash to buy the daily insurance the truck company offers.
