Uhaul - pick up some Mexicans from the corner of your local Home Depot and they will load and unload all day for whatever you are willing to pay them

This is definitely the smart/budget option (with the only cheaper option being to "hire" your friends instead with a 12-pack of beer).

I actually just drove a Uhaul home a couple days ago, after my car died while I was on vacation in So Cal, and I couldn't find a rental that would let me leave the area [You must be logged in to view images.

Why wouldn't you fly? Southwest has to be cheaper/faster than a Uhaul.

Maybe he had cargo, even though car wouldn't go.

This. My car was full of crap that I couldn't take with me on a plane because I'd just come from camping. Also, 2 tickets from Bakersfield to San Jose cost >$1000, so the UHaul was a lot cheaper.
