- Tall or oversized loads: a utility trailer, $55 per half-day
Open trailers cost less and work well for most hauling jobs, while enclosed trailers protect cargo from weather and theft but cost more. Choose open for basic loads and budget-conscious moves, or enclosed if your cargo needs protection or a professional appearance.

What do I need to tow a 5 x 8 ft enclosed trailer?
5 x 8 ft enclosed trailers typically have a GVWR of 2,990 lb: that is the most the trailer and its load may weigh together, so your vehicle needs a towing capacity of at least that to use the full payload. Empty, they weigh 890 to 1,111 lb and carry 1,879 to 2,100 lb. Check the rating plate on this trailer before you load it.
What does my truck actually have the capacity to tow?
Towing capacity is the maximum weight your vehicle can safely pull, determined by your vehicle's GVWR and GCWR ratings rather than engine power alone. Check your vehicle's manual for these ratings and the trailer's tongue weight to ensure you don't exceed legal limits before renting.

What should I know before using an enclosed trailer?
Properly load an enclosed trailer by distributing weight evenly, securing items with straps or chains, and ensuring your vehicle's capacity isn't exceeded. Check your hitch, lights, and tire pressure before towing, and drive cautiously with reduced speed and increased following distance.
