Kudos to Greg and his folks at the Rent-A-Center at 6929 Airport (926-1025) for thinking outside standard policy: they are waiving their month-long minimum policy for storm-related customer needs, and delivering this afternoon and tomorrow. As of 4pm today they still had some beds, and the service was terrific. My queen-sized evacuee flop arrived within the hour.

They may not be Rent-A-Center’s only consumer-oriented Austin outlet, so check out the other locations as well.
