Move Pondering

July 18, 2005 ( life )

Can I compress, pack, discard and re-organize enough stuff to move in an SUV?

UHAUL has upped their rates by $200, making it now cost $824 plus gas, or take a Budget truck for 778 + insurance + gas

I can get a minivan or large SUV for ~500 + insurance + gas, and the MPG will prolly be significantly better, and easier to drive, more comfy, etc.

At a minimum, it means ditching my futon frame, perhaps also the bookcase. Can I fit a futon matress, my desk, a trunk of winter clothing and a duffell of everything else, and ~6 boxes of Kitchen Shit, computer stuffs and misc objects into the back section of a minivan?

I'm also posting on CraigsList's rideshare board for both cities, but that's a long shot.
