One other thought about U-Haul; you can reserve a truck a month in advance, yet when you get there they may not have it. If somebody comes in before you and needs a truck they will get what you had already reserved. I have seen that twice in the last year at two altogether different locations; first when my sister and BIL moved, then when I was in renting a trailer and a woman I know was trying to get the truck she reserved to move her daughter to college. Both times they had to settle for something else.
