Two Car trailer rental?????

Is there any place that rents two car trailers?

I am looking to attend a few national races this year that are 12-30 hours away. I have another guy that races with me that is willing to help with transit costs and I would really like to take both of our cars.

This only happens once or twice a year, so buying a bigger trailer is not justifiable.

If anybody knows of a place that will rent a two car trailer or if you have a two car trailer that you are willing to rent, please let me know.

The first and only race that I am looking into is in April.

Thanks,

Shawn

I've never seen one. There's the U-Haul type places that rent singles, and the only other places I've seen are local equipment rental companies that might by luck happen to have a trailer that fits your needs. When driving through farm country I occasionally see bigger flatbed trailers with For Rent signs on them, but they don't always look worthy of a legal highway trip.

Some of the places that sell goosenecks may know of a company or two that will rent out GN's. There was a guy in missoula who for $400-600 would let you use it for a week. Not cheap but worked in a bind

I just posted in the enclosed rental thread that several places around here rent out trailers. I have the price sheet from the biggest one here and they have a 32' gooseneck for $450/week. Way to far from ya but gives ya an idea of what price to expect. I would have to bet that there is somewhere other than Uhaul around ya that rents trailers. Around here almost every town has a major rental place where you can get almost anything you need for hauling stuff. Most of there trailers are almost new. I use them on ocasion because at the price they get for renting and how little I need one I cant justify buying one.

My trailer is just a little too short for you. It's 30' but that includes the Wedge...

Trailer rental places like U Haul are limited to the size that rents the most.....for larger size trailer rental try Equipment Rental companys that rent construction equipment many times they have the larger trailers to haul with......in my area Sun Belt rental has 30 ft flatbed tag alongs they rent for $100.00 per day with 2 day min and a deposit
