    Default Need help - Moving companies - Truck Rental

    My gf is moving from Coconut Creek, FL to ATL. We've checked with Uhaul and the quoted us tremediously high for moving 1 way, like $1,000

    Does anyone know a good moving company for a cheap price???

    Thanks a lot.

    Try a company called "allied" or something... I used work for them. Not sure if they're cheap, but they paid under the table so I assume so.

    Whats costing so much is that your going one way. if you can somehow get someone to drive it back to where you got it, its SO MUCH cheaper.

    I rented a Uhaul trailer when I moved, it was $29.99 local (from saturday morning till monday morning), but if I wanted to drop it off in MIlledgeville it was a $189.99. Thankfully my stepdad was able to drive it back since he had to go back to Lawrenceville anyways...

    Just a thought if you can work it out.

    Eli - I tried to think of that way, but it'll just be as expensive for the gas (700miles), plus they aren't unlimited milage but instead .99/mi so It'd end being more than twice expensive

    Yeah i was afriad on the trucks they might charge you per mile... well, it works if you want a couple trailers, haha. No mileage, biggest you can get is 6x12 tho.

    One ways they always charge HIgh because you are removing a truck from the Local market there and adding it to a new location so there is a penalty that is paid to do so. I was told that yesterday at Uhaul because I was going to drop the truck I rented off in L-Ville From Northern Suwanee because I didn't want to pay the milage to return and they said it would be $300 to do so. So I was like I'll just bring the POS Back to you.
