Estimate the volume of your belongings and the smallest van or truck that fits them.
How this works
A typical home packs to about 8 m³ for a studio, 12 m³ for 1 bedroom, 18 m³ for 2, 26 m³ for 3 and 36 m³ for 4. We assume you can use about 85% of a truck. Rental trucks hold roughly 7 m³ (cargo van), 11 m³ (10 ft), 21 m³ (15 ft), 29 m³ (20 ft) and 48 m³ (26 ft).
