Can I travel outside of Billings with the trailer?
Yes! You can travel wherever necessary within the US. Trailer needs to be returned to the same location as pickup and at the agreed return time.
Is a deposit required for trailer rental?
Yes, we require a $150 security deposit paid before or at the time of your rental. This deposit must be made with a credit card and will be fully reimbursed once the trailer has been returned with no damages or lost/stolen equipment. If paying for your rental with cash, you will still be required to pay your deposit with a credit card.
Do you carry insurance?
Yes, we have comprehensive and collision coverage. However, we require each customer to have liability coverage through their own insurance agency for the trailer being towed. If you do not, you will be required to purchase MBA liability coverage for $3 per day of your rental.
