The 26' truck performed well during the 11 hour drive with no mechanical problems. It did have a headlight out @ rental but Penske sent someone over within an hour to fix. Our experience with Penske could not have been more positive. We were moving to SW FL the same week as Hurricane Irma resulting in numerous delays & challenges to our move. Penske was extremely understanding & accomodating. We communicated regularly with them about the delays. They allowed us to keep the truck an extra week and reduced the rate. The rental office guys inside the Home Depot were also helpful & friendly.

A 26' truck, 16' POD, & small UHaul were needed for our 4 bed home. The 26' truck performed well during the 11 hour drive with no mechanical problems. It did have a light out @ rental but Penske sent someone over within an hour to fix. Our experience with Penske could not have been more positive. We were moving to SW FL the same week as Hurricane Irma resulting in numerous delays & challenges to our move. Penske was extremely understanding & accomodating.

Generally a good experience with Penske, except the truck got less than advertised gas mileage, and we were not going over a lot of mountains. Home Depot (where the truck was rented) did a poor job of orienting us to the truck -- basically it was a "here's the keys, drive safe." It would have been nice to receive a few more tips on the truck.

This was my first rental from Penske. I was extremely satisfied with the price, unlimited mileage one way, AAA discount, and the customer service I received from Novak Auto Corporation-K.Novak. The truck was clean and filled. I usually rent from UHaul but decided to try Penske. I'm glad I did. Better, bigger truck, more time, better pricing. I will use Penske for my next move and will use Novak for pickup as long as I'm still in the area. Thanks!

Truck was surprisingly clean and well driving for having almost 100,000 miles on it. Only ended up going time Penske because of AAA discount but the equipment was so much better than what you get from the usual Moving Truck Rental place.

We were in contract to have three movers for three hours. Only two movers showed up. This proved to be more expensive for me and my husband. The reason we had requested three men was because we had some heavy items, a roll top desk I estimate at four hundred pounds. The antique desk had a top that lifted off so it made moving easier. The two moving men dropped the dos of the desk while carrying it down the stairs, breaking the roll top desk top in many pieces, and chipping all the stairs as it went down. Thank goodness none of the men were injured. The two men were nice, and did get the rest of our stuff on the 26 ft. truck without incident. My husband and I drove very slowly to our destination in Virginia from New York. There was almost no damage to anything in the truck. So overall we are thankful that the trip was a success. I think that there would have been no damage to our desk if they had sent three men instead of two. The billing didn't seem fair, we were charged for 2 men for 2 hrs plus 6 additional hours (a total of 16 hrs.). It was unfair because we had been in contract for 3 men for 3 hrs. With an 2 additional hours and 20 minutes by 3 men (to equal a total of 16 hrs.) the bill would have been lower. We were billed $730 (with an $85 adjustment credit to us), instead of the original $370 we had agreed to, plus $95 for each additional hour would have totaled $607.50. So we were overcharged $122.50

Our only problem was during pick-up of the truck. An employee at the PREVIOUS rental location (Home Depot I think, but not sure where) did not complete the necessary forms on-line which prevented the gentleman at our rental location from being able to complete our rental in a timely fashion.....he had to correct the other person's work before completing ours.

I have leased trucks from Penske as well as Budget and U-Haul. Penske has been the best experience for my needs, and I really like the simplicity of hiring their one way long distance services. When driving to loading location I experienced steering vibration and shimmy if I went over 45 mph, so I inspected the front tires and found one badly worn and the other had a nail in it! I called for service and Penske IN LESS THAN 2 HOURS sent out a well equipped expert who replaced both damaged tires with new tires while we were still loading the truck. Penske's service is awesome. I'm glad I experienced that service. I do not know how the problems slipped past their inspection but they sure fixed us up fast so we lost no time getting moved!
