Where to deduct truck rental for a self-employed mover

Where does a self-employed mover enter truck/vehicle rental expenses?  The obvious place is under Business Income and Expenses - Rental Expenses.  But there is a bolded line to not include vehicle expenses.  These truck/vehicle rentals are intrinsic to my job as a mover.  The truck rentals are used for the actual work, not a car rental on a business trip to get one place to another.  Thank you for any help!
