Penske Truck Rental is the only company that I will use or refer for any moving needs. The support staff are very courteous and their trucks are in the best shape in the industry. You can also get the best deals through Penske online.

My name some how got attached to another truck going to North Carolina when my destination was California, thought it was fixed until I returned it and they wouldn't take it because she saw this mix up and didnt know what to do so wanted to send me down the road to another rental place, all while my uber ride was waiting, so that was annoying!

We rented a one way 16 foot truck for a 120 mile move. Our truck cost was $230 for 48 hours and we purchased the comprehensive insurance for $50. We had unlimited miles. Penske was very friendly and efficient. The truck was very clean and in perfect working order.

I always like Penske...nice clean trucks with AC and the AAA discount helps! I prefer the size of the 16 foot truck when moving locally but I almost always have to make two trips with that one (when doing 1 way trips I would have gone with the larger truck)

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.
