What is the difference between in-town and long-distance truck rental?
The difference between an in-town truck rental and a long-distance truck rental mainly comes down to price. Long-distance (or one-way) truck rentals are usually priced using a flat rate based off of truck size, the date of your move, and your starting and ending locations. You will be charged extra if you exceed the estimated mileage or planned number of days you'll have the truck. In-town rentals, though, are usually charged by the mile and rates can vary depending on the truck size and the day of the week. Remember: not all truck rental companies offer both in-town and long-distance rentals, so you'll want to confirm with your company in advance.
