Moving a studio from NYC to Cleveland, cheapest way? (Ohio: rental, buy)

[bumberbob]

I know the two don't exactly go hand in hand, but I'm looking to move from Harlem to Cleveland in the cheapest but easiest way possible.

Ideally I'd like someone to drive my stuff there (id pack it), but I'm fine with driving it too. The biggest thing I'd bring is the queen sized bed and the 50" tv. I saw a u-haul rental would be 1000 to drive it to cleveland and a rental companies cheapest option is 1800. Is that really my only options?

No. Your best option is to sell everything you have, take a plane to Cleveland, and buy new stuff there. If you drive bring your personal stuff that way.

I would buy a used cargo van in Craigslist, then use it to move. If you own a lot of stuff then g
o for the extended cargo van. So you move your stuff and have wheels. A vehicle is needed in Cleveland after all.

For whatever it's worth, depending on where you live in Cleveland (Ohio City, University Circle, Shaker Square, Downtown), you can live car free in Cleveland. I did when I lived there for a couple of years.

Rapid train transit system is not massive, but covers the bases for easy, cheap living. http://mapsof.net/uploads/static-map...map_(rail).png
