Ram 1500 Classic 2021

We’ve now rented for three straight months from Broden, choosing multiple vehicles. He has always been extremely responsive and made our experience smooth. He has some of the best vehicles available and at a very reasonable price. We tried to rent from another listing this past week after returning our last vehicle to Broden, and immediately had to contact Turo to have them cancel the reservation due to major mechanical issues. Broden keeps up on his mechanical services, that added Rocket Car Wash unlimited pass is a really nice bonus, and pickup and drop off are so convenient. We just booked our 4th month and 3rd vehicle today with Broden.

Clint was an outstanding host from start to finish! The entire rental process was incredibly easy, smooth, and stress-free. He was friendly, responsive, and very accommodating, making sure everything was clear and convenient throughout the trip. The truck itself was excellent—clean, well-maintained, and exactly as described. It was spotless when I picked it up and performed flawlessly the entire time. I took it on a longer trip and had absolutely zero issues. The ride was comfortable, reliable, and handled everything I needed with ease. If you’re looking for a five-star experience all around, book with this host!!! I will absolutely rent from him again in the future! Thank you!!

Nissan Frontier 2012

The option of Renting this Nissan Frontier pick up truck appeared at first glance like an “anxiety-reducing opportunity”, and here’s the reason why: -Pretty much all of the other trucks of the same type (with the oversized compartment in the back) are advertising for over $200 at the minimum, and quite often for just 24 hours. -In addition to the relief I felt as I noticed that this one was reasonably priced, the pick up location came as an unexpected bonus. Basically, there are a great number of car dealerships, most if not all, located one next to the other, occupying about a mile-long segment of the main road connecting Colma and Daly City called Serramonte Blvd. Thus, after dropping my car at the Volkswagen dealership on Serramonte blvd, being able to access this rental, located only about a mile away was a pleasant surprise. Especially when you combine that with the affordable price. - Lastly, the communication with the truck owner was easy and the details provided were quite thorough; which altogether made for an “anxiety-reducing” experience overall😀👍🙏. Thank you again for making the rental process of your Frontier, as simple and stress-free as it can be. Kel F, PharmD

Ram 1500 2017

This truck is awesome. It has a super strong and smooth running engine. All the working areas of the truck such as the tie downs in the bed are in great condition, which was super important for me. 👍👍 used for hauling machinery. The bed is in good shape not torn up like most rental trucks. Made it easy to sweep out. You will love driving this truck if visibility is important to you, it’s a lot better than a comparable sized van lol. While trucking around 😎 I loved the sound system, worked great with charging my phone and playing music. The check in and experience with Nesha was excellent. The price was significantly better and I enjoyed this truck much more than any truck I’ve gotten from THD, Lowes or Enterprise and this year was a BIG YEAR for trucks and vans ✌️

Things to do and places to see in Calgary, AB

Calgary sits right at the edge of city life and wide-open landscapes, which means you can switch from urban streets to mountain views in under an hour. You’ve got a lively downtown, easy access to parks, and a direct route into the Canadian Rockies when you’re ready to stretch things out. With a truck, you can carry more, go further, and not worry about having to pack light.

Calgary, AB

Calgary Tower

The Calgary Tower is a classic starting point, offering sweeping views across the city and out toward the mountains. It’s a quick way to get your bearings, especially if it’s your first visit. The glass floor is optional, depending on how brave you’re feeling that day. Park nearby, head up, and take in the full scale of Calgary before diving into everything else.

Prince’s Island Park

Right in the heart of the city, Prince’s Island Park feels like a quiet reset button. You’ll find walking paths, open green space, and river views that make it easy to slow things down for a while. It’s ideal for a picnic, a stroll, or just escaping the busier parts of Calgary. A good reminder that not everything here is about pace.

Banff National Park

If you have a truck, it’s well worth considering a trip to Banff. The drive itself is part of the experience, with wide highways opening into mountain scenery that doesn’t need much introduction. Whether you’re hiking, sightseeing, or just stopping every few kilometres for photos, having the extra space in your vehicle makes the trip far more comfortable. It’s one of those journeys that quietly becomes the highlight.

Calgary Airport

Arriving in Calgary and need a truck straight away? Picking up your vehicle near the airport lets you skip the airport car rental counter and get moving without delay. It’s especially useful if you’ve got gear, equipment, or plans that don’t involve waiting around. Load up, head out, and start your trip on your own terms.

Downtown Calgary

Picking up your truck in downtown Calgary is ideal if you’re already in the city and want to get started without heading out of your way. It works well for smaller moves, quick jobs, or collecting items around the city. Easy access, central location, and a practical starting point for most plans.

South Calgary & Industrial Areas

If your plans involve job sites, equipment, or anything in between, pickup in South Calgary or industrial areas makes sense. You’re closer to major roads, warehouses, and business hubs, which means less time navigating city streets and more time getting things done. This is particularly useful for commercial vehicle hire and larger loads.

Top tips for renting a truck in Calgary


Truck rental in Calgary is straightforward once you know what you need, but a little planning goes a long way. Think about size, routes, and what you’ll be carrying before you book. The right setup makes everything easier.


Tips for driving a truck in Calgary


Driving a truck takes a bit of adjustment if you’re used to smaller vehicles. Allow extra space for turning, braking, and parking, and stay aware of your vehicle’s height and length at all times. Calgary’s roads are generally wide and well planned, which helps, but it still pays to take things steady until you’re comfortable. Once you settle in, it becomes second nature.


What is parking a truck like in Calgary?


Parking a truck in Calgary is manageable, but it does require a bit more planning. Larger vehicles may not fit in tighter underground parks, so open-air lots or designated larger spaces are often the better option. Downtown can be trickier during busy periods, while suburban areas tend to be more forgiving. When in doubt, give yourself more space than you think you need.


How to choose the right type of truck for your Calgary trip


Choosing the right truck comes down to what you’re carrying and how far you’re going. Pickup trucks are great for smaller loads and flexible use, while cargo vans suit larger, enclosed transport. If you’re travelling with others, consider seating as well as storage. It’s all about matching capacity to the task (and avoiding unnecessary second trips).


Loading a truck


Load heavier items first and place them toward the front of the cargo area to keep the vehicle balanced. Secure everything properly to prevent shifting during transit, especially on longer drives. Take your time with loading (rushing this part usually leads to doing it twice). A well-packed truck makes the whole journey smoother.


Gas stations and EV chargers in Calgary


Fuel stations are easy to find throughout Calgary and along major routes out of the city. If you’re driving a truck, double-check whether it uses petrol or diesel before filling up. EV chargers are also available across Calgary, particularly in central areas, though options vary depending on vehicle type. Planning ahead keeps things seamless.

Is there unlimited mileage car rental on Turo?

On the vehicle pages, you’ll see the total miles or kilometres you’re allowed to drive under the heading “Distance included.” You can find cars offering unlimited mileage with every trip by using the “Unlimited distance” filter.

Can other people drive the car that I rented?

Yes, multiple guests can drive the car you rent on Turo, as long as they are all approved to drive. The primary driver (whoever rented the car) can add additional drivers with no fees or additional charges. Only the primary driver can request to add drivers; Turo hosts cannot do it for you. We encourage you to request to add additional drivers before your trip starts, though guests can request to add a driver while a trip is in progress.

To speed up the process, have your additional driver create a Turo account and get approved to drive before you request to add them. All drivers must have a valid driver’s license and meet the age requirements for the car you’ve booked. You can request to add drivers via the “Trips” tab in the Turo app without additional driver charges or extra costs.

What is the cancellation policy for guests on Turo?

You can cancel and get a full refund up to 24 hours before your trip starts, unless you opt to receive a non-refundable trip discount when you book. If you book a trip with less than 24 hours’ notice, you have one hour after booking to cancel free of charge. If you cancel after the free cancellation period ends, you will be charged a cancellation fee.

In the rare event a host cancels, you’ll be notified immediately so you can book another car, or we’ll help you find one. Your refund can be temporarily held to expedite rebooking, or the funds can be returned to your bank account — your choice.

How much does it cost to rent a truck in Calgary? 

The cost of truck rental in Calgary can vary depending on car type, booking length, extras, and delivery. For cheap truck rentals in Calgary, look out for discounts on longer-duration bookings and early bookings.

What rental truck types are there in Calgary?

Passenger trucks are available if you need both seating and storage, while compact trucks suit lighter jobs around the city. You’ll also find popular makes like Ford models commonly used for reliability and capacity. Whatever the task, there’s a truck that fits on Turo.
