I have used a U haul on two occasions to carry my spit.  On the first occasion I
went to get the trailer and the dealership wouldn't let me take the trailer with
the step bumper.  The spit isn't exactly a heavyweight so I wasn't concerned.  I
simply went to another place across town and rented there.  I have rented from
them on two occasions and they have been great.  I don't get the insurance as I
figure the trailer would be covered by my auto policy in the event of an
accident.  The contents on the trailer are of of pretty low value ie basket case
spit.  Both times it was 48.00 American for 24 hrs.  The first trailer was a
really new one with an aluminum deck.  It drove very nice, never knew it was
back there, and the spit fit really well.  However I did manage to drop a rear
wheel off the ramp.  The second trailer was an older and nastier one.  I only
needed it for a ten mile trip and it was the last one left.  The spit fit
barely, and there was enough room to fit the smashed up bonnet on the trailer
behind the car.

Most Cities have multiple U-Haul vendors.  Don't assume price or availability
untill you've asked around.
