You and the Open Road: Conquering U-Haul in the Big Apple (Age Not Included...Unless It Is)
Ah, New York City. The city that never sleeps, the land of a million dreams, and... the place where finding a decent parking spot feels like winning the lottery. But fear not, intrepid mover, because when it comes to hauling your belongings across the borough or beyond, U-Haul is your trusty steed. But before you channel your inner Wyatt Earp and rent a chariot of steel, there's one crucial question: how old do you gotta be to rent a U-Haul in the concrete jungle?
** Buckle Up, Buttercup: The Minimum Age to Rent**
Now, this ain't rocket surgery, folks. But for those of us who are mathematically challenged (or maybe just permanently stuck in our college years), the minimum age to rent a U-Haul truck in New York, or anywhere else for that matter, is a cool 18 years old.
Wait, There's More! (Except It's Actually Less)
QuickTip: Return to sections that felt unclear.
Think trailers are easier? You're right! You can snag a U-Haul trailer at the ripe old age of 16. So, if you're just moving a couch or that questionable collection of Beanie Babies from your parents' basement, a trailer might be your jam.
