Keep On Truckin'
To my great relief, one of the small number of "pull through" parking spaces in my (soon to be ex-) apartment complex was available when I returned with the rental truck. Must have been around 5 km to the rental place, and it's a pretty warm day. Glad I don't have to do a whole lot more work tonight other than seal up some of these boxes.
While inspecting the truck before signing off on it, I extended the ramp and paced off the distance from the end of the ramp to the doors. That gives me the distance I have to pull forward of the most likely exit from the apartment complex so that people bringing stuff out have the minimum distance to get to the truck ramp. Unfortunately, the exit from the complex doesn't have a handicapped-access ramp; there's a straight curb. Annoying, that.
