Time to move the "Damage Magnet" and the other two !!!!

My old house is finally on the Market so I need a little help. Anybody in the Valley with a Car Trailer I can use. It doesnt have to be long term, the houses are only six miles apart and it doesnt have to be all done in the same day. Thanks in advance.

It 's been my experience that you'll be ahead if you pop for the $45-$50 and rent one for the day. I prefer the trailers from Nations Rent to U-Haul. NR's have a flat load floor with tie down hooks which is ideal if I'm hauling a piece of equipment home instead of a car. The trailers are set up to haul tractors, so they are heavier duty with electric brakes. UH p'd me off last time and refused to rent me the trailer when I told them I wasn't using it to haul a vehicle. The trailer was hooked up and everything, nope, insurance regulations, blah, blah...

I agree ....U-haul is nothing less than a pain in the a$$.I dont know if we have Nations out here. The reason I was asking for the loan of a trailer is I prefer not to do it all in one day. Two of the cars can be driven,but then that involves getting a second person for a ride to pick up the car you drove over. I have had to do most of this move by myself and a trailer would make everything simple.

I'll second the feelings on U-Haul. I wasn't impressed with their trailer I rented for the autocross.
