Questions
Is there a minimum charge for one item?
No. BoxHauls has no minimum fare. One item costs $17.00 plus $3.10 a mile: $32.50 for 5 miles.
What counts as a single item?
Anything one pickup trip can carry: a chair, a dresser, a desk, a TV, a bookcase. The price is per trip, so a few extra pieces don't change it.
Is single-item delivery cheaper than renting a truck?
Usually, for short trips. You skip the rental fee, mileage, gas and doing the lifting yourself. A 10-mile BoxHauls trip is $48.00 all in.
