On the move from N.J. to The Villages I used Pack Rat, it's the company you may see that shows a unit at Lowes...to keep it short, a extremely poor and disappointing experience. Make sure you talk about wooden blocks being placed under the unit when they deliver it so your driveway way doesn't get damaged. Good luck.
Unfortunately PACK-RAT no longer goes to NJ-> FL. Their NJ center closed. I have a reservation with U-Pack for JAN. They are 1/2 the price of PODS so hopefully they aren't 1/2 as good!
