Easy transfer, nice van. The pop top is a little low for a big person, but still comfortable.

Vicki was great to deal with she was very flexible with pickup and drop off times. the trailer was priced fair for all we got. she charged me a very reasonable fee for dropping off with the tanks full and not very well cleaned.
