How to Pack Up & Move to the USA From Canada

December 29, 2016

I had to find the most cost efficient way to move from Canada to the deep south USA. I was quoted $3600 from a moving company. There was no way I was going to part with my material goods that I took so much time to find and buy. The best way to transport all my stuff was to rent a mini van. You can’t rent a car in Canada and drop it off in the USA, so the next best option was to rent a car from the closest American city. My fiance took a plane from Texas to Boston and from there drove to Montreal. Avis was the best deal for this, but we asked for a minivan and they gave us a “Ford Flex”, which is much smaller! I had to give away a lot of my stuff because we were anticipating bigger cargo space!

Anyway, all in all, the cost was less than $3000, we had an adventure and stopped in many interesting cities.
