This may sound way crazy, but was perfect for my folks when they moved from Minnesota to Arizona - dad found a cube van for sale - essentially a "LARGE UHAUL TRUCK" it was in good shape, reasonably priced. He bought it for whatever$$. Filled it and drove it to AZ, parked it in their driveway and unloaded it in their own time frame, which wasn't immediatly as they had carpeting and painting to do in the house once they got to AZ - so it may have been a couple months B/4 they emptied it - then dad sold it at a profit! That way other than the cost of gas, there was not much expense to the move for them.
