We (two people) are moving from the west coast USA to the east coast soon. I'm looking for ideas on how to do this as cheaply as possible. Renting a uhaul looks like about $5k before gas costs. Seems like a lot. Anyone have creative ideas?

Did this also. I think in total the trip was like 4k including the cost of 2 pods, gas in our own car, etc. Just make sure wherever you go has somewhere they can drop them, because it sucks ass to have to carry your stuff across a grass lot because the company couldn't fit their semi truck in the apartment driveway to drop the pods.
