Cost of renting a truck will differ depending on the company

Truck rentals are used for the do-it-yourself moving, whether it is in-town moving, or various one-way moves. Basically, to decide whether to get a U-Haul or a moving PODS container, do your homework. The In-town moving is where the truck will be picked up then returned to the same location in the same town, and one-way moves are where the truck is picked up from one place and returned to another. The cost of renting a truck will differ depending on the company you are using, amount of miles traveled, truck size, and availability. Some companies will rent by the day, for a set rate depending on the size of the truck, where other companies rent by a daily rate and a per-mile rate. As most people move on the weekend, it is usually more expensive to rent during that time. These rates can change depending on the availability and demand.
