One question that can make or break your move is what size moving truck do you need to rent? A truck that\u2019s too small could create a nightmare on moving day. One that\u2019s too large is a waste of money. NSA Storage put together the following guide to help you make the right decision and ensure that your move goes off without a hitch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"why-it-s-imporant-to-get-the-right-size\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why It&#8217;s Imporant to Get the Right Size<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Moving is stressful, both physically and mentally. There are dozens of things to do, and many small but essential tasks to remember. Moving day itself involves lifting, carrying, and loading heavy boxes and furniture, which is exhausting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With all of this going on, the last thing you want is to run out of space on your moving truck. If you\u2019re moving locally, running out of space means you\u2019ll have to make several trips back and forth. Moving a long distance? It could create a nightmare scenario: unloading and reloading to make more space, renting a second truck, or leaving some things behind. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Renting a truck that\u2019s big enough to hold everything will prevent these problems and make your move much less stressful. That\u2019s why it\u2019s vital to know what size truck you need ahead of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"moving-truck-sizes-an-overview\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Moving Truck Sizes: An Overview<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text is-stacked-on-mobile\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nsastorage.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/shutterstock_2038786421-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"The open back of a moving truck parked outside a street of townhomes.\" class=\"wp-image-1489 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nsastorage.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/shutterstock_2038786421-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.nsastorage.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/shutterstock_2038786421-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.nsastorage.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/shutterstock_2038786421-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.nsastorage.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/shutterstock_2038786421-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.nsastorage.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/shutterstock_2038786421-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Truck rental companies typically describe their trucks by length because it\u2019s the easiest for laypeople to understand. That\u2019s why you\u2019ll see them talking about 10-foot trucks, 20-foot trucks, etc. These numbers refer to the truck\u2019s cargo box only, not the cab. Inside, most trucks have roughly the same height and width.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What\u2019s most important is the amount of cubic feet of space the truck holds. This number takes into account the length, width, and height of the cargo box. Since height and width are similar on most trucks, the length becomes the biggest factor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Below are the approximate cubic foot capacities of the moving truck sizes most rental companies offer:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>10-Foot<\/strong>: 380\u2013420 cubic feet<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>12-Foot<\/strong>: 450\u2013500 cubic feet<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>15-Foot<\/strong>: 760\u2013800 cubic feet<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>16-Foot<\/strong>: 800\u2013900 cubic feet<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>20-Foot<\/strong>: 1,000\u20131,050 cubic feet<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>22-Foot<\/strong>: About 1,200 cubic feet<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>26-Foot<\/strong>: 1,600\u20131,700 cubic feet<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"how-to-determine-how-much-space-you-need\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">How To Determine How Much Space You Need<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now that we know the importance of cubic feet, it\u2019s time to figure out how many cubic feet of stuff you have. Then you can match that space to the truck you need, plus a little extra for good measure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One rule of thumb moving companies use is that <strong>a single room equals 150\u2013200 cubic feet of space<\/strong>. That includes rooms like the kitchen, living room, dining room, and bedrooms. Smaller rooms like bathrooms will use less space, while larger rooms might use more, depending on how many large pieces of furniture they contain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you want a better idea of what a cubic foot looks like, purchase a variety of moving boxes from your local retailer. A \u201cbook\u201d box is typically 1.5 cubic feet, a \u201cmedium\u201d box is 3 cubic feet, and a \u201clarge\u201d box is 5 cubic feet.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here\u2019s a quick guide to help you determine the cubic feet of space you\u2019ll need in your moving truck:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>A studio apartment: <strong>300\u2013400 cubic feet<\/strong>. 10 or 12-foot truck.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A one-bedroom apartment: <strong>600\u2013700 cubic feet<\/strong>. 15-foot truck.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A two-bedroom apartment: <strong>800\u20131000 cubic feet<\/strong>. 16 or 20-foot truck.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A two-bedroom home: <strong>800\u20131,200 cubic feet<\/strong>. 20 or 22-foot truck<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A three-bedroom home: <strong>1,200\u20131,600 cubic feet<\/strong>. 22 or 26-foot truck.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Anything larger than a three-bedroom home would likely require a 26-foot truck. Also, remember that it\u2019s always good to rent a truck that\u2019s slightly larger than you need. That way, you have a bit of a buffer if you have more stuff than you anticipated or if your packing skills are sub-par.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"common-household-items-and-how-much-space-they-need\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Common Household Items and How Much Space They Need<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text is-stacked-on-mobile\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nsastorage.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/shutterstock_2256068685-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"The open back of a moving truck with furniture and boxes waiting to be loaded in.\" class=\"wp-image-1491 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nsastorage.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/shutterstock_2256068685-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.nsastorage.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/shutterstock_2256068685-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.nsastorage.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/shutterstock_2256068685-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.nsastorage.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/shutterstock_2256068685-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.nsastorage.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/shutterstock_2256068685-2048x1152.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you want to be as exact as possible, the list below will help.
