I went to rent a U Haul last year and they gave me the same song and dance
about having to rent their truck with it. Maybe it was just that location.
I ended up renting a dolly from another rental place..

Jim: I rented a U-haul trailer three years back to haul a 70 chevelle back
from Arizona, it fit fine, however, I agree with the others the trailer
looked like it had been through the war. The other rental companies want
you to rent the big truck too. U haul was the only on to rent the trailer
to me to pull behind my 1500 Chevrolet pickup.

Hi gang,
Well, the time has finally come that I have found a frame/rolling chassis for my '59 Corvette project- I am supposed to go pick it up from the seller in VA next weekend.. I called Uhaul today, and they've told me that the frame for a '59 Corvette will not fit on their standard "auto transport" carrier.. So, I contacted Penske truck rental, and they have a car carrier that it would fit on perfectly, but they won't allow you to rent a car trailer without using one of THEIR trucks to tow it.. It wouldn't be a big deal, if the rental fee including the truck wasn't 500 bucks.. Tried Home Depot, they have trailers, but they are only available when you are renting another piece of their equipment to go ON the trailer..
I don't know anyone who owns a trailer that I could borrow from, or I would have definitely asked- Does anyone have any suggestions they can recommend? There's nothing worse than finding the part you need, and having no way to get it home.
Thanks,
Jim '66 Malibu '59 Corvette
