    All kinds of ex-Ann Arbor folk here. I just moved into Phx from Ann Arbor myself (this month).

    It sucked. Big-time.

    We used ABF, one of those shippers where you pack and they drive. That part was OK; our stuff arrived in decent shape (surprisingly). Much better than driving some rental truck yourself, I think. Total cost for the truck was $1900. It worked out to be about a hundred bucks more than renting a Ryder or Uhaul, after we figured in gas, hotel, etc. I drove my car out here myself in three days.

    Just make sure you have a job lined up if you can help it, because whatever money you do have saved up will disappear like a fart in the wind.

    But I am missing Ann Arbor--downton Tempe's just not the same (though similar).

    Best of luck!
