College Students to Save On Truck Rentals

Penske Truck Rental provides clean, safe and reliable vehicles from convenient locations across the United States. Penske recommends students use the 12- or 16-foot truck when moving out of a college dorm or small apartment. Penske also sells boxes, packing tape, bubble wrap, moving blankets, and rents hand trucks that help protect your belongings and make your moving experience easier.

Penske reminds students to drive with extra care because trucks are taller, wider, heavier, and require more stopping distance than the vehicles they are used to driving. So, drive slower and take extra precautions, especially when the truck is loaded.

To ensure a smooth moving day, Penske recommends picking up your truck a day early. When traveling, park in well-lit areas and padlock the rear door. If traveling a long distance, students should know Penske has 24/7 emergency roadside assistance and optional protection plans to help you through your moving journey.
