You can also tow your car (or trailer to use a smaller truck if it does fit in a 16' as example) If you tow a car you offset gas costs there a bit too.

So it's 1100 miles. Hire 2 men to unload not sure say $200-300 for a day.

Rental $1050
gas $400
labor $250

Pods we would need two they are small, $4500

I think either way the stress and aggravation is the same

. Two men...less than 25 bucks an hour for both of them. took four hours. Came from Orlando. Excellent. We gave them a generous tip. Ladydoc who posts on here gave us their names.
