car hauler

Was thinking about a trailer the other day after we talked and thought about this...

$50 to rent for a weekend and they have 79.5" wide decks on the "newer models". I think you were talking about an 83" wide deck or something, but this could work for the Clayton trip with some changing out of tires.

I knew Uhaul had trailers, but knowing the way their stuff is taken care of, I'm leary of using it. I need to call around to some of the local trailer places and see if they rent car haulers or not.

but no one pulls their trailers over 45 mph, to do otherwise would be disregarding the warning prominently placed on the fender.

that countryside trailers place rents trailers i believe.

U-Haul trailers are ok. It's more like $80 for a couple of days, but it's not bad in a pinch. There are strap loops all over the trailer in the middle section so I just drove over the tire straps and used my own. They have inertia brakes, also, so you can get away with not having trailer brakes on your truck. Just tell them you're moving and you have a couple of project cars that need to be moved over the weekend, they charge more if you leave town.

I rented one from a place in bryan, then ended up buying the trailer & they deducted the rental fee from the price ($1k-$125). It's a larger tandem with beefier axles (3700# I think?). The place is on the right while heading toward the bend in Bryan. IF they are still in business, Cliff was the owner when I went.

i rented a utility trailer from a place out west on 21 that sells trailers once to go get my tahoe at lake somerville when the fuel pump went out. it wasnt too expensive iirc.
