Anyone know of any places that rent out trailers for moving vehicles - other than uhaul?
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
There is a big debate about just how badly screwed you will be if you're involved in an accident with a HMMWV on a uhaul trailer due to things like it's oversized for the trailer, heavier than they rate the trailer for, and that you have to lie in order to rent the trailer.RentalMax and Sunbelt both carry them.
What vehicle are you attempting to transport?
I moved my HMMWV about 200 miles on a Uhaul Trailer when I bought it.
How did you find it-did it work well? I checked the specs out and my hitch (stock F150) is only rated at 5000lbs unless I have weight distributed setup. And sounds like uhaul doesn’t allow the WDH on their trailers.RentalMax and Sunbelt both carry them.

We’ll see. I’m checking things out now..
Here in the city there is an independent trailer company that rents just about any kind of trailer you might want. Car Haulers, Horse Haulers, Race Car Haulers, and Cargo Trailers. These folks build custom trailers and they keep a small fleet to rent.
Chances are that you might find a place like that in your neck of the woods too... Maybe?
Search yellowpages.com for “equipment rental”.We’ll see. I’m checking things out now.
What I’m actually moving is a Volvo c303. Will be driving about 5.5 hrs on highway. About 5300 lbs. 90” wheel base. So about 40” less wheelbase than hmmwv but about same weight. I figured I should be able to balance on the trailer to get tongue weight ok. Maybe?
I successfully moved my HMMWV with a uhaul trailer and truck from gov panet to my place, a guy at the place was like "the uhaul insurance wont cover the trailer if it's damaged".There is a big debate about just how badly screwed you will be if you're involved in an accident with a HMMWV on a uhaul trailer due to things like it's oversized for the trailer, heavier than they rate the trailer for, and that you have to lie in order to rent the trailer.
