TAMPA —Tampa is undoubtedly a destination point, at least according to U-Haul.

Rankings released Friday by the moving company placed Tampa as the No. 15 city for those using a U-Haul truck to relocate.

"'Destination Cities' reflect the volume and regularity of do-it-yourself movers coming into a community," the company said in a release.

The rankings, which include 50 cities, are based on the destination of one-way truck rentals. Tampa saw a 3.6 percent increase in its truck arrivals from last year, bumping it up one ranking position. Houston kept its No. 1 spot from 2016, followed by Chicago and San Antonio.
