  PODS probably provides the most well known turnkey solution - but you pay a
premium for the convenience.If they could use a container at their
destination, I would bet the cheapest solution would be to buy a container.I
imagine they are fairly reasonable in NJ if not too far from Newark.Then you
aren't on the clock and can have it moved at your pace.You could even try "you
ship"

    Some family recently relocated from Illinois to North Carolina.  They
used Upack.com, who dropped a 28x8x9' box trailer in their driveway, and a
few days later, moved it to Fayetteville.  We packed every inch of that
trailer to the ceiling, but if you need less, you only pay for the space
you use.

    They were pretty satisfied.  Upack will also store the loaded trailer,
if need be.
