I need to borrow a pick-up truck or U-haul or anything similar to move some of my furniture tomorrow.  It will take at most 1 hour altogether and the destination is literally only 2 blocks away.  Willing to pay $20 to borrow it for one hour.  You can drive the truck yourself if you want, but you won't have to lift anything.  Thanks, let me know ASAP.

A U-Haul can be had for $19.95 plus tax and mileage. Most likely - no one on 
HERE would have access to one for you. I doubt they'll "rent" one - for you. 
I "highly" doubt anyone will "loan" you their vehicle, not knowing you. 
Surely there is a U-Haul facility there SOMEWHERE. Look in the Yellow Pages 
and call them. IF need be, take a PAT bus to there and get it - drive it 
back - do your thing - take it back and get a bus back. A bit of 
inconvenience yes, but if ya got to get it done, that is an option.  If I 
didn't live so far away, I'd rent you my truck, that is one aspect of my 
business. RENTING! BUT - "I" do the driving - but not the loading.
