Thanks, this is really helpful. I’m also moving from PA to CA, but I think I’m going to just sell everything lol

1900 miles from Clearwater FL to El Paso TX… did it in 59 hrs with a toddler a cat and a dog in a 20 ft UHAUL w/ trailer for my 4 dr sedan attached. Horrible experience spent about $700+ on the GAS alone plus the truck was like $2800 and the movers were like $400 total load and unload. Add in the money blown on hotels and food and I blew like $5k bro. Also bought the insurance and it was so worth it because a trailer flew a pebble and broke the windshield.

30K? I might as well buy all new furniture.

We did almost the exact same thing as you in our move from Omaha to Tampa.

Thanks for the great video sharing ur experience. The moving cost is normal, not expensive at all with all the truck stuff. One thing is quite disappointed that you 2 did jobs of completely moving and missing the fun part of traveling since it was the great opportunity of driving across country!😅😊

Great video, thank you! Im getting a full service move from my work to relocate, but it's good to know how much it costs to do it by ones self.

My gosh the gas was high. Im thinking of getting a truck and having someone drive for me from Texas to Atlanta

The only way I would pay people to move my shit across country is if I put the lock on the back and so they could not open and get access to my shit and I also didn’t pay them until they got there and any damaged things came out that payment

Hey bob I’m also from Pennsylvania area and was wondering when you made your big move from PA to California what were the biggest challenges you faced? Also did you already have a job lined up prior to moving or did you wait a month to get comfortable then started working?

I used PODS...no complaints; other than that, was going to use again, but PODS price increased over $1000 more ( was $1800, now $3000)! Considering renting Penske cargo van, but nervous considering I am not sure how difficult it will be to drive from Houston to Ohio in a van ( have done it in SUV). Also nervous about what weather conditions that I may encounter-- I hate driving if raining hard. I enjoy a good road trip, but hate solo driving as a female. If I go the driving route, I also am trying to see if I can fly someone out to assist...not always easy.

the horror stories are real! I was scammed big time! Only hire well known traditional movings or move yourself - don't let your items out of your sight. Do your homework thoroughly.
