Help me decide - 12' or 16' for my move? (moving truck, trucks)

[Liasonkhan]

I'm trying to figure out if a 12' will be big enough to make one trip with all of my stuff. I've driven moving trucks in the past so not too worried, but I'd prefer the smaller option if possible just to make maneuvering/parking easier.

I don't have a lot of stuff but I can't figure out by the capacity if I should be fine with a 12' or not. We just bought a sectional sofa which is the item making me unsure.

Summary of items:

-Sectional Sofa Left arm facing sofa sectional dimensions: 77"W x 37"D x 38"H Right arm facing chaise sectional dimensions: 86"W x 37"D x 38"H

-Recliner Chair 37"W x 35"D x 40"H

-Queen bed frame & mattress -double dresser -medium-sized tv/shelf unit

Then approx 10-15 medium boxes, large tv, and other random/misc. items which could fit in trips made with my SUV. So it's really all of the above mentioned items that I'm worried about since they won't fit in my car.

If you're in doubt go with the 16 foot. You have more stuff than you think.

Ugh, yeah. My quote was 9,650 pounds and we used most of a huge truck, like semi truck level, and the actual weight was 11,500. Whoops.
