In their guide, Movers.com says that the upfront costs of renting a moving truck are cheaper than hiring a professional agency, as most rental companies will only charge based on truck size, distance traveled, and days of use. Individuals will also be able to reduce additional expenses by purchasing their own packing materials and utilizing items like car haulers. This makes truck rentals a suitable alternative for Americans who don’t have many possessions and are moving only a short distance from their original location.
Another advantage to renting a moving truck is that individuals have significantly more control over their move, as they will have the freedom to decide on their moving date, how to pack their items, and the truck size. However, Movers.com also warns that readers must take extra precaution when driving moving trucks because they may be difficult to handle for individuals who don’t have experience operating large vehicles. Furthermore, the lower cost of a rental may be offset by fuel, toll charges, rental surcharges, cargo protection, and other unexpected fees, and DIY movers will also have to assume full responsibility for any damages that occur to their belongings during the journey.
On the other hand, professional movers are trained to transport delicate and heavy items, and reputable companies will often provide insurance as part of their services. Although more expensive, they present a convenient and low-stress resource for individuals who would prefer not to expend as much effort on planning and labor. Movers.com recommends professionals for long-distance transportation, specialty moves, and small moves, but the website also advises readers to research a company extensively to avoid poor-quality movers and scams.
Readers can use Movers.com’s online directory to find trustworthy companies in their area. All businesses partnered with the website are licensed, insured, and pre-screened according to strict quality guidelines.
