Full-service:  Hiring professional movers

Of all the moving strategies, hiring movers is usually the most expensive option. There’s a lot involved with this service. With a full-service move, professional movers do all the back-breaking labor and planning— loading, unloading, and driving —you can sit back and relax. Another option to the full-service move is to have them pack up your belongings and unpack them at your new place. This is very convenient and relaxing, for a higher price tag.

Mid-range:  packing yourself and having a moving company move your boxes and belongings

When you compare costs, packing yourself is the middle ground between an inexpensive do-it-yourself moving truck rental and a pricier full-service move.

This type of move can be really affordable because it offers some of the convenience of a full-service move, but still leaves you in charge of some of the labor. In this type of move, you pack your belongings. Then the moving company comes to your home with the moving truck. After the truck is loaded, the moving company picks up your belongings and moves it — across Massachusetts or across the country.

The price is based on distance and the size of the truck you need.

Budget option:  Packing yourself and renting a truck

Renting a moving truck is the cheapest option. Renting a truck puts you in charge of all the labor:  packing, loading, driving, and unloading. You also need to find others to help you with your move.

When you rent a moving truck, you pay based on the size of the truck.
