Moving truck size calculator

Which rental truck size, from a cargo van to a 26-foot truck, usually fits a home your size, with the approximate capacity of each.

Your move

Suggested truck, 2 bedrooms

26-foot truck

Approximate capacity
1,682 cu ft
Usually fits
3-4+ bedrooms

Sized for about 75% of the space being used, because a truck rarely packs full. With bulky furniture, or to make one trip, size up rather than down.

How it works

  1. Pick your home size

    The calculator turns it into a typical load in cubic feet.

  2. See the suggested truck

    It sizes up, because a truck rarely packs full: it assumes about 75% of the space gets used.

  3. Size up if you are unsure

    Bulky furniture, or want one trip? The next size up is shown too.
