ABF is one of the largest trucking companies in the US. Basically they drop off a 28 foot trailer. You load it, they pick it up and take it to your destination and drop it off. Then you unload it. I hired a couple guys on each end to load and unload for a very reasonable fee. Whatever space you don't use on the truck they fill it with commercial freight separated by a bulkhead you put up after you load it. You only pay for the space you use. Upack got very high customer satisfaction ratings unlike some of the other movers I checked and I checked every conceivable way to get our stuff from CA to TN. They were right on time and did exactly what they said they would do. It was a no brainier for us and much less expensive.
