Smile Moving by rental truck

We rented a 26 foot Budget truck, had some younger friends load it and drove it from MD. Cost was under $1500.00 and included, boxes, loading, fuel, truck for 7 days, unloading. The truck was tricky at first but most of the trip was on I-95 we tried to keep the stops to large truckstops and a motel with a large back parking area. We were going to tow a car behind but decided against it. We brought a lot and the truck was full. We then flew back to MD and closed on the sale there. Drove a car back the following week. I figured what we saved in the move would pay for new furniture.
