I would have to tell her no....or she can pick up the U-haul and you can lend a few hours to help unload once she gets to your town.

....just seems odd to me her asking that....by the way who's paying for the u-haul? You or her?
.. I did not ask her that.. I mentioned.. that I don't want to be on the hook for some van..... I'm not really comfortable signing.... paper for something... I'm a third party to...
.. she said it was already pre arranged..
and something about giving u Haul $20.... which she would reimburse me for.... I know its not a scam...
.. and I am sure she needs the help..
.. but it all just seems so odd..lol

If you want to help just tell her you will help once she gets to your town. ...I think I would personally stay away from renting or picking up a u-haul for someone you really don't know and have not actually seen or met.

It's good that you want to help, but it sounds like she is taking advantage of your kindness, it's like Keegan said, you could have helped unload once she got here, but to ask you to get the Uhaul and drive it there and back is odd......does she not drive?

.. so I guess the real question is..
have you ever said you would help someone..
.. and then after thinking about it..
.... wanted to change your mind..
.... only because you don't really want to be inconvenienced...... I'm going with yes..lol

The other thing is that you would also be responsible for anything happening to the Uhaul as you would be the registered driver.

.. yes that's the screwy part.... I was thinking...ok.. so why don't you come.. pick up the u-haul.... I will meet you... help you move.. bring the U Haul back get your car... go have dinner..... but then I thought... ok it is an hour and a half drive into town for you... and I am already here....sooo.. I guess it makes sense for me to bring it to you...lol.... but then I thought... I'm sure u Haul wants me to sign something....yes..

I agree with Pink...you would be responsible for the u=haul...not a good thing for someone you don't know.

There is just something not right with the situation. She won't send pictures of herself and now the moving thing? I don't know...just sounds odd.

If you really want to help then tell her you need to meet prior...for coffee or lunch whatever....

And do you know where she is moving too?

I worked for Uhaul and Budget.........they take your info as you are the driver........it's your insurance that will be used if anything happens

... she says she has a roommate in her new place that could help unload..... she needs help loading it from her old place..... which I can understand.. I think her roommate is working during the day...
..... and can only be there to help unload.. after work....

.. and believe me I know right now..
.. I am trying hard to convince myself to help her...lol... I guess because I was brought up to believe... if somebody truly needs help help them..... problem is I don't think she truly needs help....hmm..

I just think the girl is a little too sketchy....not trying to be mean but I think she is definately taking advantage of your kindness....

Sooo....I think save yourself the trouble and heartache of moving someone you don't really know....and get through the crappy construction and take Pink to dinner!!!
