Are there rental trucks that seat 4 people?

Can you fit four people in a moving truck?

If you’re trying to move a family and are looking for moving trucks that seat four people, you may be having trouble. Wonder why they’re impossible to find? Because leading truck rental companies like U-Haul^®, Penske^® or Budget^® don’t offer them! The equipment from these companies have, at most, three seats — and no back seats. So if you have three or more passengers, you won’t all fit.

The good news is you can move long distance without having to concern yourself with fitting four people inside one rental truck. Here’s how to move without having to drive a rental truck at all.

Determine U-Haul^®gas costs

When preparing for your upcoming move, it’s wise to define your expenses so you know what to expect to spend. Along with the costs associated with renting moving equipment and travel expenses, another expenditure that can impact your moving price is fuel — especially for long distance moves. Before you hit the road, prepare for the trip by figuring out your U-Haul fuel costs. With so many miles and lots of stops along the way, being prepared before you pay at the pump is important. And if you find that the cost of fuel is more than you expected, it may be worth exploring alternatives.
