Trying to figure everything you need for your budget<\/a> to move your two-bedroom apartment? Use this moving guide to get an idea of what size truck you\u2019ll need, how many moving supplies it\u2019ll take, and how many hours of Moving Help\u00ae<\/a> to reserve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moving to a different sized apartment? We also created guides for a studio<\/a> and one-bedroom<\/a> move.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Size Truck Should I Rent for a Two-Bedroom Apartment?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

U-Haul recommends renting a 15′ truck when moving most two-bedroom apartments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apartment Size<\/strong><\/th>Truck Size<\/strong><\/th><\/tr><\/thead>
2-Bedroom (Average amount of belongings)<\/td>15′ Truck<\/a><\/td><\/tr>
2-Bedroom (More than average amount of belongings)<\/td>17′ Truck<\/a><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Be sure not to rent too large of a moving truck. Having extra space in your truck can cause load shift which might damage your belongings. Consider hiring professional apartment moving labor providers<\/a> from Moving Help to ensure your truck is loaded properly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Many U-Box\u00ae Moving Containers Are Needed for a Two-Bedroom?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Apartment Size<\/strong><\/th># of U-Box Containers<\/strong><\/th><\/tr><\/thead>
2-Bedroom (Average amount of belongings)<\/td>3 U-Box Containers<\/td><\/tr>
2-Bedroom (More than average amount of belongings)<\/td>4 U-Box Containers<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

A single U-Box container<\/a> can hold more than you might think. With a capacity of 257 cubic feet, you can actually fit around a room to a room and a half of household items in just one container.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Many Moving Boxes Do I Need for a Two-Bedroom Apartment?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Apartment Size<\/strong><\/th>Small Boxes<\/strong><\/th>Medium Boxes<\/th>Large Boxes<\/th><\/tr><\/thead>
2-Bedroom (Average amount of belongings)<\/td>15 Small Boxes<\/a><\/td>25 Medium Boxes<\/td>10 Large <\/a>Boxes<\/a><\/td><\/tr>
2-Bedroom (More than average amount of belongings)<\/td>20 Small Boxes<\/td>30 Medium Boxes<\/a><\/td>15 Large Boxes<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Don\u2019t stress about accidentally buying more boxes<\/a> than you think you\u2019ll actually need. U-Haul centers accept returns for all unused boxes when you bring your receipt. It\u2019s always better to have too many boxes than face yourself needing more when you might be rushing to pack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Make your move easier with specialty boxes. You will likely need just one dish saver kit<\/a>, two to three wardrobe boxes<\/a>, and a TV box<\/a> for each flat screen you have.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Moving Supplies Do I Need for a Two-Bedroom?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you would rather just buy all of your moving supplies and boxes all at one, try purchasing an apartment moving kit<\/a>. If you think you might need more or less of a certain item, you can easily edit the quantity before adding the kit to your cart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
