LPT: you can hire movers for a fraction of the price if you just drive the truck
I recently had to help my mom move and the quotes from moving companies were anywhere from $2500-$4500. So what I did was book the uhaul truck and just hired 2 separate moving companies to load and unload for less than $800 all in. All you have to do is just drive the truck. You can book it all on the uhaul website.

If your belongings are damaged in transit, full-service movers are responsible. If you drive the truck yourself, you are 100% liable for anything that breaks or moves on the highway. The loading crew can stow the stuff, but if a pothole knocks off a mirror, that’s on you.
See if your personal auto coverage extends to commercial rental trucks for long-distance moves. Sometimes coverage is spotty. Having said that, saving $2k+ is huge. Just make sure you're ok driving a 26 foot box truckon a long haul. Also, have the loading crew take pictures of how everything is strapped down before they leave. Once you're out on the road you can't fix a bad load without stopping and risking more damage" Great hack to save money, just don’t skip the prep work to protect your stuff.
