Being A U-Haul Dealer is a ‘Win-Win’ For Any Small Business Owner

Nov 3, 2020

A U-Haul dealer escorts a Caucasian couple to the parking lot of an ACE Hardware filled with U-Haul trucks and vans.

A customer walks in intending to buy a grill, a large bookshelf, or a loveseat. Sadly, their car doesn’t have the ability to bring it home that day. The customer is about to walk out the door empty-handed, which would result in you losing the sale. For many small business owners, this is the reality they face when customers don’t have the appropriately sized vehicle they need to make a purchase. You, the owner, are left hoping they return with a larger van or truck.

Now, consider this scenario.

You’re a U-Haul dealer and have a U-Haul truck or cargo van out front. That same customer comes in and discovers their car is too small for the grill or furniture they wish to buy. You can now offer your customers the U-Haul rental to help them get from your store to their place. Instead of losing the sale, you’ve kept it, and both parties are happy. As a bonus, you even earn a commission from the rental. Win-win!

What You Need To Become A U-Haul Dealer

You surely have some questions about what a dealer is and the investment. Here are some high-level points to start with:

  • No franchise fee = ZERO startup costs
  • No Liability Risk
  • You don’t need a large parking area
