Professional movers are not cheap. If you don’t have the cash to hire them, then look into DIY alternatives. You might need to enlist the help of your friends and family, but it will only cost you the cost of the rental, fuel, and maybe some pizza and beer after the move. If you have more room in your budget, hiring movers might be worth it as it will save you time and energy. It’s up to you to weight the pros and cons of your moving method so make sure to think carefully.
