Moving Truck Companies

There are many local and national moving truck companies to choose from. And choosing the right moving truck company may help you save not only money, but also many headaches. Ask me how I know that!
During my many moves, I would search on the internet and through the Yellow Pages trying to find a list of moving truck companies in my area. Depending on where you live, you may have to drive a ways to go and pick up your moving truck.
When I lived in the north east, I often had to drive an hour to pick up a truck, compared to having to only drive about 10 minutes when moving to or from Houston. Below is a list of some national moving truck companies that I have either used or have seen in my travels. Keep in mind that if you are moving locally, sometimes you can save money renting a moving truck from a smaller company.
But also keep in mind that you’ll get what you pay for! Cheap moving truck companies are out there… but so are moving trucks with major probolems. You wouldn’t want the truck to break down and have to move your belongings from one truck to the other!
OK… so here is that list I mentioned (in no special order):
1. Penske
2. Budget
3. U haul
4. Ryder
5. Two Men and a Truck
6. Wheaton Moving Company
7. ABF U-Pack Moving
8. Hertz
9. UPS Freight Trailors
10. Local Movers
For my last move, I used someone who owned his own truck and had his son, his son’s girlfriend, and his wife working for him. They traveled the country moving people in their own truck. The way I found them was simply asking people who they knew of as far as moving truck companies.
I did pay a little more for them as they loaded the truck for me and met me down in Texas a week later at our new house. All the while we drove down in a nice and comfortable car and relaxed. Diving a car a few thousand miles is a lot less stressful than driving a huge moving truck towing a car. Ask me how I know that!!!
