Furniture and the moving of it

It looks like I might be moving to my first real apartment(I been living in one of those extended stays hotel dealies for a while), and wanted to try to get people's feedback when it came to furniture.
Basically, apart from my bookcases and a computer desk That I don't know if I want to keep, I really don't have anything else furniture wise. There's no hurry on the apartment thing, so right now I'm trying to gaugue about how much I'm looking to spend to actually make the place look somewhat nice.
First of all, bed-
Ideally, I would prefer queen size, as that's what I have now, and I gotten used to that(plus I bought covers and such not too long ago). I'm really easy to please, so I'm not looking for anything extravagant or the like. Just a bed and frame. How much am I looking at for that?
Sofa- Again, not looking for something fancy, just one that I can put in the living room and be able to chill in.
There's an IKEA nearby where I got the furniture I have, so I figure I can go over there to pick up a small dining table and chairs, though if you guys got other recommendations, I'll hear them too.
Finally, the moving itself. Does anyone have any experience of how much a moving company would charge? Obviously it's going to come down to lots of factors, but say to hire them for them to move a lot of boxes and two mid sized bookcases, is it even worth it, or should I stop being lazy and do it myself? What about a uhaul?
