I would strongly suggest that you measure carefully. Those trucks can hold a lot!
You will need to know the exact cubic footage of all your boxes. Try to picture them shoved all together, and stacked seven feet high. You need that measurement.
You will also want the stronger boxes to be on the bottom, and the crunchables on top.

The truck will hold 350 CF...it is about 6'2" interior headspace, with no room for error. The 15' is 800 CF. I think I may have 450 CF, with the furniture.
This truck does NOT have the extra space of "granny's attic" over the cab, so unless I can shrink my stuff, it is a sucky situation. Everything has to be boxed because it is going into storage...No one in my family will help me (five siblings) and those who could don't want to. So I will finish packing tomorrow and take it on the chin.
I have no idea how much I will need to spend for gas, but whatever it is, it won't be enough...I will no doubt get there on a wing and a prayer; and the tank will have to be filled/topped off when I turn it in.
I've had worse things to deal with, but not since my son was a tiny little guy!
