Not necessarily. I just did it to move bulky stuff 2 weeks ago.

Try Craigslist ... There are movers with vans who do small moves .....

Fido.
Thanks everyone.
- I have put an Ad on craigslist
- I called up mike (647-212-4487 or 416-792-4872) and still waiting to hear back from him
- I checked with Home Depot and the said that I need to buy something from their store to rent that Van. I haven't checked with Lowe's yet
I checked National car rental company and they are giving Cargo Van(3/4 Ton Cargo Van - GMC Savanna or similar) for rent (39.99+tax) but I have never driven a Cargo Van before. Is that difficult to drive ?

Go for National. On a Sunday OR after 10 p.m. any day, it will be a breeze. Take delivery, park and lock , then leave it till you are ready to drive. But hang in there close by where you take delivery. OR alternately drive one bloc at a time in a SIXTY zone.
You will slowly gain courage. Then drop the rental vehicle off with a full tank of gas. Park and lock and return to National.
Use a lot of padding, such as Styrofoam, cushions or bubble packs to save damage to the table and the van too. Be careful when you slow down. Ask for all of the helpful details from National, where you rent. They might provide you a loan of the padding materials also.
Good Luck.
