What quote did you get from UHaul? That should be a $20/day van + mileage. Can't be more than $50 or so. You claim the UHaul rate is "too expensive", but want someone to drive 2 hours one way (let's be realistic, by the time you account for loading and unloading, it is at LEAST a 2 hour trip) for less than that?

You should just come up with a rate that you think is fair and post that instead of "TBD".
