Texas U-Haul's top growth state again
PHOENIX, Ariz. (U-Haul) – Texas continued its reign as America's top-growth state during 2018, according to U-Haul data.
Year-over-year arrivals of one-way U-Haul truck rentals rose 5 percent while departures climbed 6 percent from Texas' 2017 numbers.
Despite a larger increase in departures, arriving trucks still accounted for 50.2 percent of all one-way U-Haul traffic in the Lone Star State.
This is the third year in a row that Texas secured the top spot on the list. Florida, South Carolina, Utah, and Idaho rounded out the top five. Illinois ranked 50th for the third time in four years.
