  • They wouldn’t really have a way if preventing this from happening altogether. So you have to increase the risk to the lessee for bad behavior.

    Point of sale is the only place they ID the customer. At that point you determine whether the lease is to a legal entity (Gov/corp) or Private. If the trucks were contracted to DHS or a contractor then this is moot and fuck 'em. If they were contracted as a private lease to an agent concealing the purpose then a couple options could be:

    • imposing maximum fees associated with breach of ToS
    • Suing the individual for fraudulent use, possibly criminal, or damage to the brand, even if the lessee is immune.

    I’m unsure if Uhaul is franchised, but in that case there is less clarity in the options. Corporate could pressure them depending on contract language.

    End if the day, unless it is seen as an economic threat to the brand, nothing will likely be done.

    Note: i don’t usually think that punitive action is useful but it’s all these bastards know.
