Need help moving vehicle from New Bern to CT

[Bob Bradley]

I'll be driving my truck down to New Bern in March to pick up my new boat. Does anyone know of a service in that area that will transport my truck back to CT for me so I don't have to bring an extra driver along?

A one-way car rental from CT to NC may be cheaper......

Enterprise

Yep, cheaper to rent a one way truck or van.
Did this about 15 years ago for a new boat delivery I was helping with, picked the boat up in Beaufort.
Think Hertz at the New Bern airport was the only option back then, much more built up there now so could be better options.
UHaul is sort of everywhere so check them out too, just have to watch for hours and days their dealers are open.
Just did a one way Uhaul trailer rental with them last week that worked out really well.

One way rental is definitely the way to go. You may be surprised at just how cheaply you can rent one. Do an online search vs individual rental companies. Been there, done that many times.

I called Hertz before I posted. $843 for a 1 way rental of an SUV.

Bob, you could look at UShip, which is a site that does transport brokerage. Or you could email me, I have a friend who is a transport broker, she could probably find you an open transporter for a reasonable amount.

Interesting, I just checked Enterprise and a Ford Edge SUV from Avon to New Bern one-way was $358 and a Cadillac was the same.

[Bob Bradley]

Thanks. I'll email you Jim. The Enterprise price is reasonable. I'm just not sure if the Edge would be big enough. Was that from Avon, Ct?

Yes, Avon, CT. My wife has family there. They also have pickup trucks for the same price.
