Moving can be a real pain in the neck; not only because of all the packing and goodbyes, but also because of the logistics of it all. Once you’ve put all of your belongings into bags and boxes—and likely realized you have too many of them—you also have to find a way to drag them from point A to point B.

That’s when services such as U-Haul come in handy. You can rent a vehicle or equipment that you need and set off on the next chapter of your life. Seems pretty straightforward, right? Well, it’s not always as simple as that and these pictures, shared by the Facebook group fittingly titled 'Uhaul probably wouldn't like you doing that with their vehicle', prove it. Scroll down to find some of the best instances of U-Hauls in the wild and see for yourself what an adventure moving can be.

In addition to the pictures, below you will also find our conversation with a professor in the Faculty of Law at Queen’s University in Canada, expert in accident law and automobile insurance, Erik S. Knutsen, who was kind enough to answer a few of Bored Panda’s questions.

    FYI: it is always cheaper to call ur insurance company and have ur own car bumped up to full coverage (if u don't already have it) when u are renting a vehicle, than it is to pay the rental company's crazy Collison waiver rate. A week should cost u less than 20 bucks depending on how much u choose for the deductible and then when u return the car u just call them back and have it change back to whatever ur preference is.

    *in David Attenborough voice* and here we see a lone majestic U-Haul, separated from it's herd on their long migration south. Sadly, without the protection of its fellow hauls, this young vehicle is easy prey for hungry predators. Calmly drinking at the watering hole, it is unaware of the stealthy approach of caterpillar tracks on the bank behind"

    I'm not sure this is a safe or secure way to transport livestock. I know these people probably don't give a s**t about the animal's welfare but just having them freestanding in the back of a van seems like an invitation for broken bones and injuries. Not to mention the distress those poor cows must be feeling.
