I will probably need to move 2 NIB pins and I was thinking of renting a van.  Can anyone recommend a rental place and a vehicle.  I am thinking that the 2 games boxed would not find in a standard sized van (with the seats removed).  Sorry for what might seem to be a basic question but it is my first NIB and I want to make sure that I dont damage it while trying to move it.

Depending on how far you have to go, I've gone to home depot and used their van's to move alot.. within 90 mins, its dirt cheap

Otherwise, cargo van from Enterprise or Discount work great.  I would check out some of the online saving places (smartcanucks, etc) for coupons.

Don't know if you can rent a Honda Odyssey but 2 NIB definitely fit in 1 with the seats out. 1 box fits accross the van behind the front seats and the second pushed in straight and hatch closes with no issue and allows 2 passengers in the front seat with normal seats back for leg room.

Tested this one out personally

if you're going rental, you should check for a cargo "cube" instead of a standard van. When I was planing to move last month, the rental place was having these for about 10$ more a day, but its litterally 3 times bigger for moving stuff around.

Good luck with the double move.

And if you decide to go the cargo van route, check that there's a ramp included. Some of Uhaul's smaller cubes vans don't have a ramp so you'll have to use wooden planks or something. Or lift it up and down by hand.

We had more than enough cargo space between us for a few pins (not in box).

Did you decide on SM?

Try to find a Dodge Sprinter van to rent, as it'll hold 2 NIB pins no problem.
