What the service offers
- Vehicle choices include pickup trucks, cargo vans, and 10-, 15-, 20-, 26-, and 29-foot moving trucks.
- U-Haul Truck Share 24/7 allows pickup and return at any time of day or night using a phone, subject to availability.
- The U-Haul app supports scheduling a reservation, managing the order, and picking up or returning the rental.
- Moving trucks can tow U-Haul trailers, and vehicle transport is available using a car carrier or tow dolly; towing limits vary by vehicle.
Practical considerations
These are features and tradeoffs to weigh—not review scores or a claim that one provider is the best for everyone.
Potential advantages
- The broad U.S. and Canada location network can support one-way moves without requiring the renter to return the truck to the origin location.
- A range of vehicle sizes and towing options lets renters match capacity to a small job, apartment move, or larger household move.
Tradeoffs to check
- As a DIY rental, the renter is responsible for driving, loading, unloading, and coordinating the move rather than receiving a full-service crew.
- Final vehicle assignment, route availability, mileage, fees, and pickup or return details depend on the selected locations and dates, so planning requires an availability check and quote.
