What do you like best about Penske?

It is super easy to reserve a truck from customers perspective. Pricing is very clear and I've never had additional unexpected charges brought up or any discrepancies with pricing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Penske?

Every Penske pickup location is different and the reliability of some of them is questionable due to notification settings. I've used Home Depot as my pickup point before, and stood in line for about 30 minutes just to talk to somebody and they did not have my paperwork ready for the truck. This reflects poorly on Penske and other retailers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Penske:

When reserving trucks from a user perspective, it is more reliable to schedule through trusted businesses or Penske locations directly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Penske solving and how is that benefiting you?

Moving office furniture. I also use Penske personally. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Penske?

While you have the big boys such as Uline, Budget, etc. Sometimes this one goes noticed but it should not providing all of the tools and utilities as the competition but at the fraction of a price . While the system maybe rudimentary at times it does work for ease of efficiency by displaying the available services in a clear and concise format (regardless of the limitations that there are). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Penske?

Cost cutting measures come in somewhere and that is reflected in the quality of the customer care support. But that is not a knock on the individuals themselves but more so it could be the training structure and education on their services or lack thereof I should say. This is just one of the prices you will pay jack of all trades but master of none is a accurate phrase to describe the experience I had. While not overwhelmingly amazing it still at the same time could have been alot worse, so then you need to ask yourself for your project are you just looking for a minimally viable product or something more complete. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Penske:

Decent alternative to the other competitors out there not cream of the crop though. You get what you pay for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Penske solving and how is that benefiting you?

I solved a logistical problem I was having using Penske and was able to meet my deadline on time. The benefits of having a good logistics and transport partner is very valuable especially in our current economic state Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
