Hertz Equipment rentals have some trailers that are rated up to 30 tons...(SOME places do) call/search around for some...might be one close to ya if you're lucky. Either that, or you can find some smaller time Heavy Equipment rental place that will rent you one to do a local job...

Check with your local Larger Rental Store. They may have one, otherwise find some local Trailer dealers, sometimes they rent them out.

Decent tool/equipment rental places rent equipment trailers. The Home Depot by me rents equipment (tools, jack hammers, skid steers, etc...) and they come with the trailers. I don't see why they wouldn't rent just the trailer for a day.
