I moved within nyc 2 years ago (brooklyn to manhattan) and the only U-Haul available that day was the 22’ truck which was way bigger than I needed. I thought driving it in the city felt fine, having never driven a truck like that before.

You’ll be fine, but as someone who move from Boston odds are whatever your moving it’s not worth the cost. Rent a large SUV/mini van instead.

I did Rochester -> nyc in the smallest truck model. It’s fine just be super careful with your blind spots (both sides)

Don’t think you can use the vans for out-of-city moves. The 10 foot should be fine tho

Totally fine. I just drove a 9’ cargo van from Atlanta to NYC and back a week ago. Much farther than Boston. 😄 It really depends on your comfort level!

I drove the smaller uhaul truck, bigger than cargo, from VA to NYC. I barely drive and made it out okay.

MOSS ADAMS SoCal (Irvine, San Diego, LA) BRS people can you please provide some insight? I spoke to an experienced hire recruiter today and he said the company is moving to a hybrid model to include more in-person time between clients and staff. How often are you traveling to client sites and the office? is it as much as audit 2-3 weeks living in a hotel or sitting in the client's office? or maybe once a month? or are you working mostly remote? Thank you.
