[quote=Anonymous]We recently moved a 4 bdr from DC to MD, and it was $4k in the dead of winter for mostly self-packing. One estimator said that moving during the summer doubles the cost. If you have fragile/valuable items, move those yourself. I would consider renting a minivan or larger SUV for the move so that you have access to these valuable items in your own car. Also, pack suitcases as if you were going to spend a few days at a hotel, as well as a box with things like toilet paper, paper towels, a few trash bags, disposable utensils, cups/mugs, instant coffee, milk boxes, fruit, snacks, easy breakfast food, and a pot, a package of pasta, a wooden spoon, and a jar of marinara and some parm for a quick and easy hot meal. Also be sure to have things like passports on you, rather than as part of the moving truck. Make sure to have cash on hand for tips. We had a moving crew of five and gave out $300 in tips.[/quote]
