Does anyone know of a lower cost option for a one-way truck rental, or other cheaper transportation options?
It is a competitive business as you are doing people shop on line. The companies shop each other. As far as renting a truck, I expect a truck with a lift gate will be more. Furniture is heavy. How to get it from ground level into a truck and then down again.
A lift gate makes it far easier. My opinion 750 vs 1,000 might be wise to spend the thousand. I expect that $1,000 quote you will find add ons, fuel surcharge, insurance etc.
