Moving trailer options

Has anyone used/picked up a U-Haul trailer in Squamish? Just looking at smaller cargo trailer options, but the U-Haul reservation website doesn’t have anything pop up for Squamish (seems like they exist though?). Needing it to move things from Squamish to the Island, so can’t do Home Depot because they require you to return to the pick up location I believe.

Any advice is greatly appreciated!

How to work in NZ as a US citizen that is a Canadian resident

I’m hoping someone has experience or knowledge on a unique situation like mine.

I’m a 26-year-old U.S. citizen and I’m interested in spending ~6 months in New Zealand while working/travelling. The U.S. Working Holiday Visa seems like the obvious option, but I’m unsure if I meet the “normally live in the USA” requirement.
I have been living in Canada for the past 8 years on temporary status (currently an open work permit). I have applied for Canadian PR, but I am not a Canadian permanent resident or citizen yet. I still maintain a U.S. address and remain a U.S. citizen, but my day-to-day life has been based in Canada for years.

Has anyone been in a similar situation (U.S. citizen living abroad but still applying through the U.S. Working Holiday scheme)? Did Immigration New Zealand consider you ineligible because you were not physically living in the U.S.? I realize the application requirements literally says that you should be living in the U.S., but I feel my situation is tricky because I’m not exactly permanently living anywhere else.

I’m also curious if anyone knows of alternative visa options for a U.S. citizen wanting to work in NZ temporarily (~6 months) if the Working Holiday Visa isn’t possible.
Thanks!
