But if it is moving truck rental that you need, they got you covered. The Home Depot does offer two different vehicles leased directly from them.
The Load ‘n Go Flatbed Truck -is a standard sized truck to handle all you day-to-day project needs. These might include the hauling of lumber, drywall, plywood, cement/concrete, or other such items. These are often too big for your vehicle. You can also get a trailer hitch for their trucks; if you rent the trailer form them as well.
The other option is the Load ‘n Go Van -It is a cargo van able to handle loads up to 3000 pounds. These too are great for hauling loads too large for your own vehicle, or for things that need to stay dry. They also offer better security, as the load is locked safely inside.
There are a couple other things to consider about renting these from The Home Depot. They do require a $50 dollar deposit in order to rent the vehicle. All rentals must be returned to the store you rented it from, no one-way rentals. They also stress that makes and models will vary from store to store.
Now if you want a larger vehicle for your moving truck rental needs The Home Depot does offer the standard sized moving trucks. They don’t offer these directly, instead they have partnered with Penske. The rates and conditions for use of these trucks are the same as any Penske moving truck rental.
