is the website of U-Haul International.

U-Haul International, Inc. is a North American moving equipment rental company, based in Phoenix, Arizona, that has been in operation since 1945.
 

The company was founded by Leonard Shoen (1916-1999) in Ridgefield, Washington, who began it in the garage owned by his wife's family, and expanded through franchising with gas stations.
 

Since 1945, U_Haul has been the undisputed choice for the do-it-yourself mover, with a network of more than 15,650 locations in all 50 United States and 10 Canadian provinces. U-Haul customers' patronage has enabled the Company to maintain a fleet size of 96,000 trucks, 75,000 trailers and 35,000 towing devices. U_Haul offers more than 387,000 rooms and more than 34 million square feet of storage space at more than 1,075 owned and managed facilities throughout North America. U-Haul is the consumer’s number one choice as the largest installer of permanent trailer hitches in the automotive aftermarket industry. U-Haul supplies alternative-fuel for vehicles and backyard barbecues as one of the nation’s largest retailer of propane.

 

U-Haul truck rental rates differ by usage. For One-way Moves, pickup and drop off at different location, the rates are decided upon the need for that equipment at the destination; One-way rates include a predefined amount of mileage, usually judged by the driving distance from one location to the other with allowance for loading and unloading. If more mileage is used there is an extra-mileage rate that may differ from location to location.
 

For "In-town Moves", pickup and drop off at the same location, rate are fixed by the size of the truck with addition mileage charge. In town rates are for one "rental period", they are rented based on availability and requested amounts of time. Generally equipment is available for 24 hours. Mileage differs from location to location but is generally around 79 cents per mile on weekdays and 99 cents per mile on weekends. For pickups or Cargo Vans the mileage rate is always 59 cents per mile. The pick-up trucks, cargo vans, 10' trucks, and 14' trucks rent for $19.95, the 17' truck rents for $29.95, and the 24' and 26' trucks rent for $39.95.

Trailers are exempt from mileage charges as they are not equipped with odometers. They are rented based on availability and requested amounts of time. 4' x 6' open and 4' x 8' enclosed trailers are $14.95, 5' x 8' open and enclosed trailers are $18.95, and the largest trailers, 6' x 12' open and enclosed, are $29.95. The 5' x 10' trailers are also $29.95, but are very old and generally not available for rental.
 

While U-Haul guarantees to get you moved, the exact pickup time and location for any reservation made for "One-Way" use cannot be confirmed until the day before the planned pick up, no matter how far in advance the reservation is made.

This is largely due to the fact that the one way equipment is usually on the rental at least once a week. It's generally uncertain exactly where the equipment will be available until 2-3 days before the pick up date as it is being used by other families.
