| Cheap 26ft Moving Truck Rental?
Just wondering if you guys know who will have the cheapest rates for a trip from Pentiction to Aldergrove. Looking for a 26ft truck and only a one way trip. Called up a few places already but maybe someone here will know a better one. Thanks!

i would suggest Penseke truck.. they seem to have newer trucks all the time..
BTW: a one way trip will cost you an arm and a leg... try to look into a moving company... you would be paying a little more but you dont have to move the stuff yourself..
i moved from edmonton back to vancouver.. i called a fe places and it ranged from $1200-$1600... i called this moving company, $2000 flat rate.. which was a pretty good deal..

(which is truck by the way, a trunk is part of your car)

I've moved a few times over the last few years and U-Haul has always been the best price

but i guess it makes more sense that you just can't type :P
Penske seems to be the guys that are going hard in vancouver now though -- see their trucks everywhere. hell i even bought a used one from them 3 years and then they dump all their trucks, so you are pretty much guaranteed of getting a good one.
