Keep in mind that with Utes and trailers it means lots of smaller moves, lots of trips across town (which add up even if it is a short distance) and you can't be in two places at once. This means that you have to be either controlling the pack and load or contolling the unload at the other end...

FWIW I really recommend hiring an ISUZU truck for a day. We have moved our entire house a few times in just one trip in the right sized truck. They are easy to drive and you only need a regular license. I would never go back to a van or trailer now . I think the price is pretty reasonable and is well worth the time and effort you save. There is a website that helps you compare all of the hire companies (google - vroomvroomvroom).

And I second the idea of a garage sale! It feels so good to offload excess stuff!What works really well is to move out of your house a few days early, leaving behind all the stuff you want to sell. That way you can have the garage sale in the empty house if it rains. Then, the way I look at it, people are paying you to take away all your crap!!! Remember to keep the prices crazy low so that it walks out the door... otherwise you will need that trailer to take it all to the dump/salvos later .

all the best with the move and the new house!
