Very simple: Call every ex-boyfriend, male cousin, brother, you know. Act anxious and helpless. Promise them a couple of pitchers of beer at a strip joint. They'll be your obediant moving slaves for as long as it takes. 

(I know you regard your future husband with high esteem but take my word, men are that dumb.)

My advice is to let professionals do all of the work.  Depending on the distance you are moving (and who you are moving in with - presumably your husband who has furniture?) I would decide on what to keep, what to sale and what to give away.  The two of you should inventory what you have and then decide as a couple on what to keep.  If you have two sofas between you then you only need one so you can sell or donate the other one.  Obviously, some items are worth keeping but one thing I've learned in moving over the years is that it simply is absurd to store these items.  The value after even one year of storing some of this stuff long-term (if you've ever been to a storage auction you'll know what I'm talking about) often far exceeds the worth of the product.  Craigslist or yardsales are fine for making some extra cash if you don't mind putting up with the hassles (people not showing up, trying to talk you down in price, etc.).  I found that with very few exceptions though the best thing to do with old or outdated material is simply to give it away.  Family members and friends get first priority for me, or if I know of "someone" who is struggling (a college student moving out on their own) who could use an item I will give it to them, and as a last resort I call Goodwill or Salvation Army. 

I once was so desperate to get rid of some items (I was moving from a 2 bedroom loft apartment to a 1 bedroom) I actually left some items on the street corner with a sign on it that read "gratis".  To my amazement, it was all gone by the time I finished clearing the rest of the storage space out.
