Answer 1

Call around to several trucking firms that go state to state . Chose a firm that has a terminal in Indianapolis , as well as Chicago . Get an estimate ,per pallet . Pick up lots of shrink wrap and purchase as many pallets to load your belongings on ; shrink wrap the whole thing . Then take your items to the trucking terminal where they will be loaded and dropped off at your destination city .Much more economical than hiring a moving company .

Answer 2

You need to rent a truck from u-haul. If you have a car you can just rent the trailer. I did rent a trailer when moving from Pittsburgh to Chicago. It worked. Call 1-800-GO- U-HAUL ((1-800-468-4285) and talk to them about what you need. Good luck

You also might want to try PODS. They deliver a container to your location, and when you're done, they'll pick it up and deliver it to wherever you want.
