u/Dentist_Difficult

howdy, i am moving to austin next month for work. currently i have lots of cardboard boxes but no furnitures to move. i have called several moving companies they are charging $1300 for the trip and moving and thats quite a lot. I am wondering if anyone has similar experiences and how do you move large amount of boxes to other cities? me and my dad’s car wouldn’t fit all of them (since we r moving some furniture from my home too) and we are thinking about renting a u-haul truck and maybe hire some movers to move.

Moving to Austin in June after graduation! Please give me some advices if you have lived at either of the apartments!!!

I have toured a couple of apartments these few days and it comes down to either the Albright or the Presidium 183!

The Albright: 910sf $1908 Pros: cheaper and larger than 183, quieter

Cons: amenities are limited, pool is in repair right now, carpet bedroom which i hate, no big cabinets in bathroom, One sink in bathroom, closet smaller, no balcony, no separate desk area in kitchen

Presidium 183(My favorite so far) 865sf, $2019 Pros: Amenities are amazing, literally has everything you could ask for. No carpet in bedroom, separate desk area in kitchen, lots of cabinets in bathroom, huge closet+double sinks, has sizable balcony

Cons: Room available right now are all on the outside rim so I can hear some highway noises in the balcony but once you close the door you can barely hear any. the only thing i am a little worry about is how much noise i can pick up from the highway at night. I can’t really hear any when i toured but once i go to sleep i might hear some noises. The room available is facing Presidium Waterford parking garage so the look isn’t the greatest
