Just wondering if anyone has any recommendations or reviews on shipping/moving companies to have my personal goods shipped. Any idea on the least expensive (slow ok) service/companies? Any recommendations on the best way and/or what to use to pack everything?

Thanks in advance.

We just used a Uhaul and did everything ourselves but you can check out PODS or ABF for movers.

I used ABF and it was not cheap but it was reasonable. I can't remember the price, but I used them for storage as well. I sold my house and went to visit my fiancee for about 4 months while I waited for my interview, so needed several months of storage prior to my POE.
