I currently live in Savannah, GA and I'm in discussions with a employer in Atlanta.
My main question is this... How do you deal with moving a long way, but yet stay in the same state? Should I treat it as a out of state move?
I'm currently single and don't have a lot of items to move as this would be my first time on my own. I also have $7,500 in savings in case anything goes wrong.
Sorry, but 250 miles might seem like a "long way" to you, but in the moving business it is nothing. Think of it as a cross-town move with a 4 hour drive.
If you really don't have much to move other than personal items (clothes, computers, TV etc), then a U-Haul trailer would probably be enough, assuming you have an adequate vehicle to pull one.
If you're planning to rent a truck or use one the mobile portable container options, be sure to compare the daily rental, mileage, and equipment repositioning rates against licensed carriers.
