Item
      4.01 Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant
On
      August
      1, 2006, the Audit Committee of General Finance Corporation ("GFN" or the
"Company") dismissed LaRue, Corrigan & McCormick LLP ("LCM") as the
      Company's independent auditors.
GFN
      was
      incorporated on October 14, 2005. LCM audited the Company's financial statements
      as of October 19, 2005, as of December 31, 2005 and as of April 10, 2006 (the
      closing of the Company's initial public offering). LCM's opinions on the
      financial statements as of October 19, 2005 and as of December 31, 2005 both
      contained a "going concern" qualification due to the Company's need to complete
      a successful public offering and acquire an operating business to generate
      revenue.
LCM's
      opinion on the financial statements as of April 10, 2006 (after completion
      of
      the initial public offering) did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer
      of opinion, and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope,
      or
      accounting principles.
Since
      October 14, 2005 and through August 1, 2006: (i) the Company had no
      disagreements with LCM on any matter of accounting principles or practices,
      financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which, if not
      resolved to the satisfaction of LCM, would have caused it to make reference
      to
      the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its report; and (ii)
      LCM
did
      not
      advise the Company of any of the events requiring reporting in this Current
      Report on Form 8-K under Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
The
      Company provided LCM with a copy of the foregoing disclosures. Attached as
      Exhibit 16 is a copy of LCM's letter, dated August 3, 2006, stating its
      agreement with such statements.
Effective
      August 1, 2006, the Company engaged Grobstein, Horwath & Company LLP ("GHC")
      as its independent auditors to audit its financial statements for its fiscal
      year ending December 31, 2006. The Audit Committee of the Company approved
      the
      appointment of GHC. Prior to such engagement, the Company did not consult with
      GHC regarding either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specific,
      completed or proposed transaction, or the type of audit opinion that might
      be
      rendered on the Company's financial statements, and neither a written report nor
      advice was provided to the Company that GHC concluded was an important factor
      considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing
      or financial reporting issue, or (ii) any matter that was either the subject
      of
      a disagreement (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the
      related instructions to Item 304 of Regulation S-K) or a reportable event (as
      defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
