Studios, dorms & a few rooms
Small moves with a truck and driver, priced per trip
You don't need a 26-foot van and a four-hour minimum to move a studio. Book a local truck owner who loads, drives and unloads your boxes and furniture, with the fare shown before you confirm.

Small move FAQ
What counts as a small move?
Anything a pickup truck can carry in one or two trips — a studio or dorm setup, a bedroom of furniture, 15 to 30 boxes, or the contents of a storage unit. If it fits in a truck bed, it's a small move.
Is a small move cheaper than hiring movers?
Usually. Traditional movers bill by the hour with a two- to four-hour minimum plus travel time. Truck-N-Go prices one trip: a truck base fare plus the mapped driving distance, so a short apartment move often lands well under a moving company's minimum.
Will the driver help carry boxes?
Yes — your driver loads, secures and unloads the truck. For stairs, elevators or a heavier load, add a second helper for $28 when you book.
Can I book more than one trip?
Yes. Many small moves are done as two back-to-back hauls. Book the first trip, and request a second from the same screen once the truck is unloaded.
Do I need to pack before the truck arrives?
Please have boxes taped and furniture emptied. Loading time is part of every trip, and a packed load means the driver is on the road faster.
