Those of you who have moved before will know how important it is that you figure out how to move your belongings to your new home. Follow our simple gauge to help you choose your size of shipping container: If you are moving the contents of a 4 or 5-bedroom house, or the contents of a 3-bedroom house plus a vehicle, you should choose a 40-foot container.
