    So I am leaving Florida for Seattle in August!

    Anyone have the hook up on UHaul, Penske, or Budget rental truck type places?!

    Or anyone know the low down on Seattle?

    It rains a lot. Buy an umbrella.

    At that time of year, not so much ... and many of the locals (at least the ones that don't walk as much as I do) still go without an umbrella when it is raining, but anyway. :) You'll have a little time. Be just in time for PAX too.

    I don't have a great knowledge of the neighborhoods outside the Bellevue/Crossroads/Overlake area though, but hopefully there are others who have been around longer that do!

    Uhaul is well priced. From what I remember, the website has all the locations and equipment inventoried so you can pretty much punch it in and have your estimates done in a few moments.
