Rent a truck?

We need to hire a moving truck to move our boxes (we have movers coming to move most of the furniture). Can anyone recommend a rental truck service?

We use either Penske or Hiawatha Reddy Rents at work.

[livejournal.com profile] perkk used All My Sons last year- its gay-owned and operated locally, too. I chat with the owner on bear411 every once a while, a nice guy.

I think they rent trucks.

All My Sons is who [livejournal.com profile] denminn and I got to help us move to our current place. We had a good experience with them.

Do you want just a truck, or do you want movers? I had good luck with 'Two Men and a Truck' (http://www.twomenandatruck.com/) when I moved here. It was very nice to just tell someone where to put things and not have to lure my friends into yet another moving party. :)

The last time I just rented a truck, I got it from Reddy Rents (http://www.reddyrents.com/) in St. Louis Park (they also have a location on Hiawatha). They were pretty good (truck was available on-time, pretty quick checkin and checkout).

We already have a couple guys and a truck for the heavy stuff lined up on Friday - we're looking to just rent a truck for Saturday for the bulk of the boxes and smaller furniture. And of course, we're not quite actively soliciting for volunteers yet, but any help would be appreciated.
