Everyone can get discounts

In addition to the change of address coupons you receive in the mail, you can qualify for other discounts and freebies when you move.

If you use U-Haul to rent a truck, for example, you can also get free month storage rental through a moving company. To qualify, you’ll need to rent a one-way truck or trailer. You’ll also want to make sure you’re at a participating location, so call yours nearest U-Haul locations.

Looking for coupons? Check out sites like Groupon which can show you local deals in your area.

AAA member discounts

If you are an AAA member, you have access to several moving discounts which you may not know about. Here’s what they are.

Atlas Van Lines: Get up to $100,000 in asset protection at no extra cost when you use Atlas. You may also be eligible for government rebates.

Penske: Save at least 12% on truck rentals and supplies.

SimpliSafe: Once you’re in your new house, you can get 15% off your customized SimpliSafe system. You’ll also get an HD indoor security camera and a free month of monitoring service.

The UPS Store: If you ship boxes to your new home, you can save 5% on shipping and 15% on packing materials.

Discounts for teachers and students

Teachers and students can save money when it comes to moving. Here are some of the discounts we found.

Budget gives teachers 20% discount for local moves and 15% off one-way moves when they use code STUDY checkout. Students can get the same discount when they use a code TRICK checkout.

(Not a student or teacher? If you’re a Costco member, you can save 25% on a Budget truck rental.)

If you are a student returning home for the summer, Amerifreight offers a $25 discount when sending your car back home. You will need to contact the company and provide proof that you are enrolled in college through your student ID. Once approved, the discount will be applied to your shipping quote.

Relocation of discounts for seniors

If you’re a senior citizen, there are several discounts available to you when it’s time to move.

Like the student discount, Amerifreight also offers seniors $25 off car delivery. You will need to provide proof by sending a photo of your ID.
