Comparing One Way Truck Rental Companies: Penske

Penske is the third company, entering the business in 1969. Penske has grown dramatically since that time. In 1983 they joined Hertz to become Hertz Penske. In later years Penske dropped away from Hertz, and went international with the acquisition of other truck renting and leasing companies here and abroad. Their focus is much broader. The provide rental trucks for local and one way moves, but they also rent and lease straight trucks and tractor trailers to corporations. Penske trucks are set up to use either as freight trucks or as moving trucks. They also rent moving tools and car tow dollies and sell moving supplies.

Penske has full service repair shops for their own equipment at many of their locations, and also seek business from outside corporate accounts. Penske has an superior maintenance program.

Penske has moving trucks in lengths of 12', 16', 22' and 26'. They also offer cargo vans and car carrier trailers. Penske also has a fleet of freight trucks used for local rentals that can also be used for moving. The freight trucks are 26’ trucks with a lift gate rather than a ramp. Penske trucks burn gas, except for the 26’, which are diesel.
