We present preliminary measurements of branching fractions and charge asymmetries for the B meson decays B -> eta(')K*, B -> eta(')rho, and B+ -> eta' pi+. The data were recorded with the BaBar detector at PEP-II and correspond to 89 x 10^6 B B-bar pairs produced in e+e- annihilation through the Upsilon(4S) resonance. We find the branching fractions B(B0 -> eta K*0) = (19.0 +2.2 -2.1 +/- 1.3) x 10^-6, B(B+ -> eta K*+) = (25.7 +3.8 -3.6 +/- 1.8) x 10^-6, B(B+ -> eta rho+) = (10.5 +3.1 -2.8 +/- 1.3) x 10^-6, B(B+ -> eta' rho+) = (14.0 +5.1 -4.6 +/- 1.9) x 10^-6 (< 22 x 10^-6 with 90% confidence), and B(B+ -> eta' pi+) = (2.8 +1.3 -1.0 +/- 0.3) x 10^-6 (< 4.5 x 10^-6). We also set 90% CL upper limits of B(B0 -> eta' K*0) < 6.4 x 10^-6 and B(B+ -> eta' K*+) < 12 x 10^-6. The time-integrated charge asymmetries are Ach(eta K*0) = +0.03 +/- 0.11 +/- 0.02, Ach(eta K*+) = +0.15 +/- 0.14 +/- 0.02, and Ach(eta rho+) = +0.06 +/- 0.29 +/- 0.02.
