Fetch

Convertible Note in 2021
Fetch was born out of the frustration of trying to rent other trucks. They hated the long lines, hidden charges for mileage and insurance, and anxiety in remembering to refill the gas tank. They just wanted to get their job done as quickly as possible. They're changing the model. Instead of quoting one price, but charging for every small add-on, they provide everything in one simple hourly price. Instead of having to travel to a rental center, they'll deliver your Fetch rental to you. Instead of outdated, hard-to-drive trucks, their vans are modern, safe, and easy to drive. You're their partner; not just a customer. Transportation should be convenient and fast. You have a job to do, and Fetch helps you get it done.
