Who is cheapest place for Moving Truck Rental?

Question:

Who is cheapest place for Moving Truck Rental? Just looking for a truck that I can rent (3-5 ton) for a 24 hour period from Thu Sept 30(eve) - Fri Oct 1(eve)

Answer:

UHaul is cheapest if you are going less than 3 BLOCKS... They have very low daily rates, but add the ridiculous rate for mileage and the fact most of their trucks are old than you and it quickly costs more to use them. Discount has always treated me right. Uhaul is very cheap but you have to watch for your kliks... Discount is very expensive, not sure what the deal includes but we just used Uhal and a 17 foot truck is 30$. Even after adding kliks and fuel.. its a bargain. I recently moved from California to the triangle. The moving companies aren't feeding you a line: when you add it all up a moving company is a good option. I knew I was going to use a moving company, and that was all. I chose United because (I didn't have anything else to go on!) they always had the cleanest trucks when I saw them on the road. They were wonderful! It was definately worth it. I even had them do some of my packing for me
(which isn't so cost effective) and it was great. When my husband moved here (also from California) he used a shipping company. He had to arrange his stuff on a pallet at a wearhouse and then it was brought to a wearhouse here and he had to go pick it up. That was fairly cheap- only something like $100 a pallet, and all his stuff fit on 2 pallets (he didn't have a lot of stuff). Then if you choose to drive your car, you could have an enjoyable trip.
-Though you can also ship your car. I took a road trip with two friends and had a great time. I think this is the best way to move.
