The rental cost of a self-move truck depends on the size of the truck and the distance traveled. Most rental companies maintain branches in almost all of the major cities in America, which allows them to offer one-way rentals for the renters convenience. Inquire about the rental prices to gauge which truck rental company best meets your budget. Rental rates are often on a per-day basis. Some companies, however, quote higher than others because they have new and well-maintained trucks, offer free unlimited mileage, or provide special services and conveniences.
Some rentals come with a standard free mileage plus charges per additional mile.
Estimate the number of miles you will need to travel, so that you can have an idea of your total rental expense. Make reservations at the rental office, online, or over the phone, preferably a week or two before the day of the move. Make reservations for towing equipment and accessories, too, if you will need them. Present the required documents. The rental company will need to see some documents before they release their vehicle to you.
