Truck Rental

If you are interested in saving money, renting a truck, packing and hauling it yourself may be the way to go. Popular brands like U-Haul, Penske, Budget Truck Rental and more have long been depended upon to provide this service. However, you do have more options now in this category. Companies like ABF U-Pack and even portable self storage companies allow you to receive the truck or storage unit, pack it with your belongings and one of their representatives will actually do the driving.

Truck rental remains a popular choice for those customers that are not afraid to do some heavy lifting or if you have a small load (i.e. apartment relocation). If you do live in an apartment, make sure you check with you landlord about any renter bylaws related to keeping your moving facility (portable storage or truck rental) on-site.

To ensure you are receiving the best service selection and costs, it is best to compare several vendors. And don’t forget to purchase your own moving boxes and supplies through online discount services such as UBOXES or MoveOut.
