Customer service was great, as expected. Ready on time, quick transaction, and clear communication throughout. The truck was in perfect condition and a later model, as most Penske trucks are. A 16' truck was a tight fit for a 1 BR, though we had an extra mattress/box spring which will not stay.

Average only because my truck broke down in SC. However, Penske did offer to refund me my hotel stay and added an extra day to my rental, but I'm awaiting a response. If they fullfill this, then I will add 1 star ... if they don't, I will deduct 1 star.

I had a truck reserved for a week at 8 AM to pick up at Home Depot. Never showed up. Constantly called to ask were the truck was and was repeatably lied to that it was "on the way." Wait 2 hours before I told them to shove it and went and rented a Uhaul instead. Would NEVER EVER you Penske again for anything. They made an already stressful day infinitely more stressful but not providing the truck I had reserved for a week.

Overall Penske was great. The pick-up location recently began renting Penske trucks so they were a bit slow. We we also rented a car carrier and dropped it off in one locations and the truck in another due to our arrival time. This caused problems. The truck and trailer were in good condition. Customer service was pretty good. I have used Penske before and the experience was good hence this rental. I would use them again….but hopefully not for a long while.

When I got to Penske in the morn, the minute I waw the 12 foot truck I knew it was too small. Wheel wells! they were able to immediately set me up with a 16' truck. Phew! The generous discounts were extremely helpful. The felt blankets were not as good as the as quilted blankets of yore. I have used Penske before and will again.

The truck was great but the tow trailer they gave us was terrible and almost caused an accident. I'll never rent this way again. The service once we realized there was a problem was excellent, but it could have been a terrible accident. The trailer should have been checked much harder.

Penske was the best deal from all of the companies we looked at in respect to renting a truck - from the actual truck to supplies. The only comment is that the movers who we hired to load our truck recommended that we have about 100 pads for a move such as ours-- and I don't recall Penske stating anything like that on their site. In the end we were able to rent 60 pads- the rental location didn't have extra -- and we could have used probably another dozen or two dozen-- pads are worth it since they are protecting everything.

Pick up service in Wauwatosa, WI was excellent. Agent was pleasant and knowledgeable. The equipment was ready, clean and in great working order. No mechanical issues during trip. Return to truck in Hayward, CA was acceptable. (Remember to ask about the discount for using Hireahelper up front - not 'available' on return of truck)

Truck cab in good condition. Upon driving, it felt like wheels needed to be aligned. I rented a 12 foot truck but was not informed by the rental company that the rear wheel wells protrude into the bed of the truck. These wheel wells caused me some trouble as it was difficult to pack large furniture items into the bed without encountering the obstruction caused by the wheel wells. Overall, Penske trucks are in much better condition than their competitor's trucks. I would rent from them again.

After several emails reminding me that the truck would be ready for pick-up at the Home Depot store in Decatur, it was not available when I showed up for pick-up. Rather than being honest and indicating that there was an issue I got these responses that it would be there in 35-40 minutes, then when still not there it was increments of 10 min. I got the truck at 11am, when my timing and moving crew timing was tight already (added 3 hours to the day of loading, since I had to pick up items north of Atlanta and had to do so in the peak evening traffic because of the delay)! And to make matters worse, since they offered a 10% discount, that further delayed it because if was payed by a credit card that was not my own. Just frustrating. Otherwise the truck was in good condition and the return was a breeze.

I highly recommend Penske, customer service was excellent here in the Coral Springs, Fl area where I rented the truck and in Arlington, Va. Mr. Pye Sint from the Coral Springs office gave us a lot of information about everything and was super nice as well as J. Nelson from the Arlington office. Great people and good prize.
