Budget rental trucks have been great for my needs. I have used them with my son and his move to college and the truck was perfect for our needs. The size of the truck was good and the truck was clean and drove perfectly for us as we had to travel hundreds of miles away.

The prices here are great, however the company could do a better job at making sure their trucks are in great condition. When I received my truck it was very dirty. I had to throw out the last customers trash. With Covid-19 on the rise you'd expect them to be more sanitary.

Pretty nice and reliable product and company. Better condition on vessels and vehicles than some rental places. Need to use fragrance free cleaners and methods for keeping vehicles clean, though, as they can be aggravating to health.

Used a rental truck to move twice now. While I give it four stars for the price, it drops to three stars for the quality of truck. Both times I have used Budget, the truck has been super run down and gross.

I rented a budget truck to move across country and the rental process and driving was smooth. I also finished my drive early, and they let me return my truck early and get a refund on the day I didnt use!

Budget trucks have been very good to me. The trucks were exactly as I reserved. They were more beat up compared to other truck companies.

Customer service is mediocre. Prices are not amongst the cheapest. I never really can have availability when I want it.
