I sold everything at the other end and used the relo to buy new stuff. If you move your old worn out stuff you're doing it wrong. :)

  That depends entirely on how expensive are your tastes. A full service mover took us 2800 miles to sf for about 12k which is about (ballpark estimate) what we paid for our living room furniture, mattress and kitchen tools. When you're young, though, especially right out of school, you're entirely correct.

  While this is a great strategy (I did just that when I moved cross-country a few months ago), it's worth recognizing that it's predicated on owning suitably cheap furniture. As you move beyond the stage in your life where your apartment is outfitted solely by Ikea, this gets less and less viable.
