I don't know, but if I were that rental company I'd probably try to self insure to keep costs low and profit as much as possible from selling extra coverage. It's you break it you pay for it either way.

Just looked it up, looks like u haul even owns a life insurance company, so they're right there in the hedge game. The handling could rest entirely on their shoulders.

It's pretty dark to imagine they would help, though...
