Common questions
Is a local trailer rental cheaper than U-Haul?
It depends on the trailer. National chains advertise low daily rates on small open trailers (4 × 7 to 6 × 12 feet). Our trailer is a 77-inch by 16-foot tandem-axle deck, a different class of trailer, at $75 for the first day and $60 a day after the second. Compare on deck size and total cost for your dates, not the headline number.
Does U-Haul deliver trailers?
National truck-rental chains rent trailers from their locations; you hitch up at the counter. We deliver to your driveway or job site across Central Arkansas starting at $25.
Can I rent a 16-foot open trailer from U-Haul?
National chains’ open utility trailers top out at 6 × 12 feet. For a 16-foot open deck in Little Rock you are looking at local operators like us, peer-to-peer listings, or trailer dealers that rent.
