With the recent addition of truck and trailer rentals, Hapgood Premises now offers customers the widest selection of equipment designed specifically for moving household goods. Moving vans range in size from 10' to 26' -- the largest moving vans in the industry, and trailers range in size from 4' by 6' to 6' by 12'. The recent addition of U-Haul trucks and trailers was a perfect match, and complemented the Hapgoods' existing business.

"The right equipment and services along with the lowest cost helped me with my decision to make U-Haul rentals part of my business," Derek stated. "I made this decision because of the company's well-established name and the reputation it enjoys with customers."

"U-Haul is proud to be associated with a quality independent business like Hapgood Premises, which is set up for success," exclaimed Bruce Bennett, president, U-Haul Company of Atlantic Canada. "Derek Hapgood is a great example of the successful business relationships U-Haul has established in order to build and maintain a strong network of over 14,000 independent dealers throughout North America."
