Trailer Lease

What is the best company to lease a van trailer from? And does anyone know what a good price would be to pay monthly on a lease? Thanks so much =)

I don't know, but if you lease a trailer, then, you can't do drop & hook loads. :o

I would check to see if there is a leasing company locally where you could do business. It is sometimes easier to do business with a smaller locally owned company than a major leasing company such as Xtra Lease. Great Dane and some of the other dealers may lease trailers. Some don't lease to owner operators. I have also known of some who require a minimum amount of cash in the bank before they will lease you a trailer. Rental fees can vary according to the age and type of trailer. I would expect to pay somewhere between $300-650/month to rent a van trailer.

That could be MORE than my truck payment!!! :eek1:

I just signed a loan for my 2006 Volvo 780; a $30,000 loan for 66 months @ $550 a month.
