I rented the 26 foot diesel truck. It was more than enough room for my things. Having a diesel truck was certainly nice. It had enough power going uphill. The truck was clean and well maintained.

The trailer lights on our car carrier did not work when we got to the Home Depot lot to pick up our moving truck + car carrier. The rental rep got on the phone and got us a new set-up within the hour (w/ truck size upgrade) and gave us a sizeable discount.

Their prices were insanely cheaper than everyone else, the truck drove super smooth and the check in and out was a breeze. The only issue I had was with the AAA discount because the employee put my information in wrong so I wasn't able to utilize that.

Our truck wasn't ready at the scheduled pickup time, but they substituted another truck so we didn't have to wait. They also forgot the hand truck but had one waiting when we came back. We had no real issues, and drop off was quick and easy.

I always use Penske. Reliable trucks with 24/7 roadside assistance, AAA discount if a member, and flat rate for the truck (no charge for mileage). The specific location we used wasn't as prepared as I am used to with Penske. They had to get fuel, and the check engine light came on during the driver's return trip. We received the truck an hour late, but they discounted $100 from my bill and gave us an appliance dolly free of charge (which came in handy). Even when things don't go exactly right, Penske does their best to provide good customer service. Will continue to use them for future moves.

We were lucky enough to get a new truck which made the travel time much nicer. The pick up location was close to our home and the rental people provided us with a thorough run down on the truck. The drop off location was even easier.

The truck was affordable and the process to get and drop off seamless. I requested a 22 foot truck and got a 26 foot which was really no biggy aside I was not used to driving a truck that big with a car being towed. The AC worked but only after getting some moving air through it after 20-30 minutes, the pads I got with it where mixed bag. Some where good thick pads, the rest where thin felt pads that ripped easily and offered no protection.

I was only going one way. I thought the price was a little pricey but I needed to move. I was moving from Kansas to Maryland. The truck was a 16'. It also did not have a CD player or power windows. They were great with me moving up the move date a day. . I would rent from Penske again. Had no issues with the truck. The truck ran fine. I would recommend this company. Debby from MD

The truck we rented was in excellent shape and customer service was great throughout the process, but the pickup location was short on moving blankets (only 8 of 2 dozen requested) and furniture dollies (0 of 2 requested). We ended up having to purchase a dozen moving blankets from a local retailer--this alone ended up costing about one-sixth of the Penske truck. Luckily our movers had furniture dollies with them.

Rented a 16' truck from Penske. We have used them in the past. Reliable trucks at a decent price. Price was around $500 after taxes/fees. We did not get any extras, but when I picked up the truck, we decided to add the insurance for another 70 something bucks so we could be worry free about damage to the vehicle. The fee covered a three day usage, and when we dropped it off, there was a key drop box so we could return it after hours, though we were a day early returning it. If you want blankets and hand trucks, you'll have to pay extra for those. Gas is also something you need to fill before return, or you get charged $8 per gallon to have them do it for you. I can do it myself for that price.

Chose Penske because of their newer truck fleet. Absolutely no problem with truck on this 650 mile move. I will say we passed several competitors with problems along the way! Customer Service on phone and on both ends was great! Recommend? Yes, yes!

My truck was not even on site when I went to pick it up even after confirming my reservation the day before. The truck arrived an hour and a half late causing me additional fees of $60 an hour for packers to sit and wait. The ramp would not extend resulting in another wait of an hour while the repair guy came. Also the gas tank doesn't register full even when the pump kicks off...it took me three attempts to finally get it full.

BAD NEWS: Seat = worse I ever sat in, wife & I back pain went through the roof after 500 miles! The 2 year old 26ft we used in 2016 much much much better. Suggest eliminating the hydraulic bouncy seat! Another BAD! We didn't get our 1st of two 26ft trucks until 4 hours later. (12:30pm versus 0830!) We also didn't get the blankets or hand truck we ordered. Had to drive to another Penske location to get these myself. Finally, the truck came with <1/4 tank of DEF. for the 1000-mile trip, meant I had to get off the road & find/buy DEF from AutoZone. Saving grace? GOOD!: The manager at DC store ("Matt") went well out of his way to try to make sure things worked. He also credited us funds back for all the waiting around, lack of reserved equipment, and having top go to retrieve equipment that should been on truck #1 (which at reserved 0830 tie, was full of garbage & pallets!) He (Matt, manager New York Ave DC store) called 3-4x to have hand truck and blankets in the later truck (arrived 1230PM versus reserved 0930). 1st truck I took off with had the carrier, was suppose to be truck #2. CHAOS!: With movers waiting on us, had to drive the wrong one home first, disconnect the carrier, and try to get the loading started. Meant that I had to connect car carrier to other truck the "12:30PM" truck -- also meant that contracts & truck IDs were flipped. Certainly not the "easy" Penske experience I had in 2016 with 26 ft trucks + carrier.
