Advice for moving cross country? (lemmy.ml)

We (two people) are moving from the west coast USA to the east coast soon. I'm looking for ideas on how to do this as cheaply as possible. Renting a uhaul looks like about $5k before gas costs. Seems like a lot. Anyone have creative ideas?

Did this also. I think in total the trip was like 4k including the cost of 2 pods, gas in our own car, etc. Just make sure wherever you go has somewhere they can drop them, because it sucks ass to have to carry your stuff across a grass lot because the company couldn't fit their semi truck in the apartment driveway to drop the pods.
