A truck of your own, or a shared truck

With a dedicated truck, your things go straight from Toronto to Ottawa. With a shared truck, you pay for the space you use and the truck stops for other households on the way, so delivery takes longer. For a small load, about a studio or 1-bedroom, a shared truck usually costs much less.
