Don't ever rent a truck from uhaul Miles get expensive as hell. You would be better off borrowing a truck or get a rental then go to uhaul. My friend rented a truck for uhaul and paid about 250 to Stockton and back. Damn near same as a rental from enterprise.

Thunderhill to fremont is about $1000.
Remember its round trip the tow operator isn't going to get a load on the return trip. Its 3 1/2 hrs each way plus load and unload time. So that 8+hrs of labor plus fuel,truck,bridge toll,ect.

I used to rent a truck and trailer from United Rental. It was a while back so I'm not sure if they still do it but back then it was around $200 for a 24 hour rental. Drove from Alameda to Sac and back. They were in San Leandro as I recall.
