Depends, most of them require deposits before you drive them. The cheapest I've seen is $19.99 for a day, plus a $100 deposit(which you'd get back after returning it).

cross town or cross country? I have a cross country move coming in a few months. If you are moving to switch jobs you can claim moving expenses on your income taxes. Dont move anywhere long distance without a job lined up. Im expecting a $3K moving cost, sucks

[quote name='repetske']Does anyone know who has the best deal on a moving truck? I've always used U-haul and they've never done me wrong, but I just wanted to see if you guys knew of anything better.[/QUOTE]
I too am moving from Fort Wayne, IN to Corpus Christi, TX(just outside it....in Taft) and I was in the same predicament
For a one way move, I found that Penske had the best rates....they also offered unlimited miles and a bunch of other stuff........
Just to let you know the other prices:
Budget wanted $2600+
U-haul wanted $1800+
Penske came in with a bargain of $1113
(these were all for the smallest trucks 10'-12')
But then Penske totally blew me away with this..........not only did I get 10% off for ordering online(not sure if the other guys offered an online discount), BUT
The next truck up (the 16') WAS THE EXACT SAME PRICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! plus the 2 next sizes were only like $1300+(again the 3rd and fourth sizes EXACT SAME PRICE)(plus the 10% off).........
I know this sounds like an ad for them but I serious was frigtened by Budget when I asked them for their smallest truck price( I guess Ryder sold Budget their one way(crosscountry) division about 7 years ago)(thats what the guy at Ryder told me)........
Hope this helps out...and good luck with your move!
