I need to get a car to the Island and a car back.. is Uhaul the only truck/trailer option here in Vancouver?
I can get the truck (as well as trailer) from uhaul but have to pay per KM --- can't seem to rent a pickup with a hitch...
.. anyone have any suggestions?
thx

canadian car and truck rental I think has trucks with hitches, how much are you willing to pay to have the cars moved?

Thx for the reply. Don't think it will be cheap. If it's something you can do give me a shout. Going from near downtown Vancouver (with driver bug) to Duncan and back with a roller. Richard

any big name rental place that rents large suv (avis budget ) has some trucks with 2 inch reciever hitchs all the wiring seems to work just do not tell them you are using it to tow say you are looking for one so you can use your slide in style bike rack hope this works done it many times ,,,,,,,, trailblazers yukons those types check first if they have that hitch most big places have unlimited millage too great deal

the Budget in China Town (Vancouver) has an unlimited mileage SUV for $150 a day and it has a hitch and electrical hook-ups.

awesome thanks for the info - thats exactly what I need. I'll check the weight limit of the SUV but I'd imagine they're built to tow..
tjhx again

It will be fine. I towed a car back from Calgary last summer and couldn't tell it was behind me. They don't take prebooking on the trucks because the movie industry likes to keep extending the rental return dates. It is best to call to see if the truck is booked or not yet. You can only book one day in advance. Their number is 604.683.5666
