Truck vs. Trailer Rental: What’s More Cost-Effective for Your Haul?


Last Updated: Jun. 13, 2024


Whether you're a small business or a large fleet manager, rental options can help you stay agile. But the question remains: Is it cheaper to rent a truck or a trailer?


Trailer Rentals:

  • Typically lower cost than full truck units
  • Great for businesses that already own tractors
  • Available in various types: dry vans, reefers, flatbeds

Truck Rentals:

  • Higher initial cost, but includes the power unit
  • Ideal for short-term needs when no tractor is available

At Nationwide Haul, we offer flexible rental and leasing options for all types of trailers and trucks. Our team can help you decide which setup fits your job, timeline, and budget.
