And some charges, like fuel (if it’s not returned full) or extra mileage used, may be due when the truck is returned. If storage is selected, it’s billed monthly. Storage rates are based on the space, location and duration of the service. Storage: If you need to store your items, you’ll have to move them into a storage unit and then back into a truck to take them to your new home.

Though we’re not focusing on local rentals here, it’s interesting to note that local rentals usually have a base rate per day for the truck, plus a per-mile fee. For one-way moves, where the truck is picked up at one location and dropped off at another, prices are based on several things: equipment size, mileage, the number of days U-Haul estimates the move will take, fuel, extra miles (if needed), liability/damage protection and sales tax.
