It takes a fat wad of ready cash to move. Twenty years ago it cost $4k for a local do-it-yourself move (inexpensive state), after the last everything was totaled.

Today it's common to compete with dozens->hundreds of applicants for a rental. We just did a similar move to that $4k of yesteryear (same region, modest house, local move) and it was about $16k.
