I moving from BC back to Alberta and I'm deciding whether to rent a 17' UHaul truck, or have a moving company do it... how are they to drive (assuming you've never driven anything larger than a Toyota Corolla

)?

I've also heard a lot of negative things about UHaul; apparently W5 did an investigation last year with pretty poor results: http://www.ctv.ca/servlet/ArticleNew...1022?hub=WFive

If we go with the UHaul, we'd also have to rent a hitch and tow our car behind us... on the highway it should probably be okay, but I'm a little concerned about weaving through the Rocky Mountains (as well as in residential roads)... any tips/suggestions/experiences to share from people who have rented a moving truck from UHaul before?
