i am not talking about moving all our furniture, just some.
Living room furniture, boxes of kitchen stuff, towels, sheets, clothes, some fairly new mattress?

We are planning to buy a lot of new furniture.

Are we talking $7500? $10,000? $20,000?

Thanks in advance.
Moved here from Boston area in March of this year. Had quotes for typical moving companies that ranged between $10k and $13k - for a 4 bedroom home ~4800 SF.

Ended up doing two 16 foot PODS for ~$7k. We packed ourselves and hired someone in TV area to unload (James Dose - search on FB) for ~$1k. So ~$8k all in.

Note: once we decided to go the PODS route we definitely limited the stuff we moved. We decided to get all new furniture for our new home - which is highly recommended in retrospect (but that is a different conversation).
