Moving yourself

When you move, you’ll pack items, load them into your own vehicle or a rented truck and then unload at the other end.

Moving is more complicated if you don’t have the benefit of free help or you’re moving long distance.

Pros

• Control over every aspect
• Costs less than hiring movers
• Can be done on exactly your timeline
