About Renting a Car Hauler Trailer in Grand Rapids

A car hauler is built for one job: moving vehicles. Unlike a general-purpose trailer, it features drive-on ramps or a low beavertail load angle and tie-down points sized for wheel straps or axle straps rather than a cargo strap thrown over the hood. That design matters when you are rolling a project car out of a garage in Kent County, picking up an auction purchase from a dealer, hauling a non-running daily driver to a shop, or transporting a collector car to a show without adding road miles to the odometer.

Before you hitch up, confirm the trailer's rated capacity meets or exceeds your vehicle's curb weight, and check that the deck length and width accommodate your wheelbase and track. Low-clearance cars require attention to ramp angle; a steep ramp can catch a front air dam before the wheels touch the deck. Secure the vehicle at four points using wheel or axle straps, and use a winch if the vehicle does not run under its own power. Your tow vehicle must be rated for the combined load, and most loaded car haulers require a brake controller. Compare available car haulers near Grand Rapids and reserve the size that fits your vehicle.
