Rental moving trucks are the way to go when you want to be in control of your own uprooting destiny while also saving money that can be used for something of lasting value for your new home. Here’s some step-by-step guidance on procedures with moving truck rental companies and on orchestrating your move.

Choosing the right company and truck is just a matter of some basic common sense. Starting, of course, with the question of vehicle size. Be prepared to tell the rental company how much stuff you have for starters. The next question will be, can you handle the one they recommend?

Once that’s settled you’ll want to determine the dates of the rental, and then scrutinize the fine print. 

Costs: Does the fee include mileage or not?

Return policy: Does the agreement specify that you must return the truck to the same office you rented it from? No problem if you’re just moving across town. But if you’re moving to some distant location, you need a company that offers one way rental trucks.

Does the agreement require you to fill the gas tank before returning? No problem — you just need to know this in advance. 

What about insurance . Does your automobile policy cover you for truck rentals? If not, can you get coverage from your insurance agent, or does the truck rental company want to sell it to you?

That’s about all there is to it.

Now the fun part begins. You know, packing, labeling everything clearly, supervising all your friendly helpers and being perfectly organized and ready for the loading phase before you go pick up the vehicle. 

Good luck with your move, and may your moving truck rental experience go well!
