How does Ryder's truck rental compare to a U-Pack move?

It's important for anyone who's moving to do a little research on the various moving options out there to determine which one best fits their situation and moving budget. If you're looking for an inexpensive way to move long distance, you've probably considered renting a truck— but how does something like Ryder's truck rental compare to making a U-Pack move? You may be surprised at the differences— read on!

There are several benefits to moving with U-Pack that you might not be aware of, especially compared to Ryder's truck rental. For starters, you won't have to worry about maneuvering a cumbersome rental truck through traffic— cross country!— with a U-Pack move. (And who wants to encounter curvy, mountainous roads or bad weather in a rental? No thanks!) Moving with U-Pack is also a timesaver in comparison to Ryder's truck rental— did you know that the maximum recommend travel speed is 55 MPH in a rental truck? That means longer time on the road and more hotel stays. Move with U-Pack and travel to your new home at your own pace, in the comfort of your own vehicle.

The benefits don't stop there. With a U-Pack move, you only pay for the space you use, and more room is always available. Since Ryder rental trucks only come in a few sizes, you'll either be stuck paying for unused space or end up leaving behind your belongings that won't fit. And if you haven't already received a free moving quote from U-Pack, you might want to check it out— U-Pack Moving prices are actually comparable to Ryder's truck rental rates.
