You don’t need a truck to tow this small cargo trailer; you can tow it easily right behind your car as long as it has a towing package. The 5x8 enclosed trailer can hold a queen-size bed and tow up to 1,800 lbs! All cargo trailer rentals have a soft ride, rub rails, multiple tie-downs and lockable doors to protect your belongings.

Businesses frequently rent enclosed cargo trailers simply because they do not have a vehicle big enough to transport larger or bulk items. Office furniture moves, trade show exhibits and new office supplies are common reasons why businesses rent cargo trailers. There is more than 200 cubic feet of loading space in this enclosed cargo trailer; that’s extra space for you that is easy to tow.
