IF the car will roll, U-haul (only place I know of that) rents car dollies. The two wheel dolly trailer thing.
$68 per day includes insurance.
Been thinking a good hussle (besides scrapping cars)
might be to bring one to the car auction, where people cannot leave the lot until they get tags at DMV, and offer them to tow it reasonable distance for $100 or so.
Think I definately need a trailer myself IF I get into cardboard recycling for $60 per ton.
Or ever recycle 40X48" pallets again (my truck holds up to 22 but scary) full size pick-ups stack two wide and have up to 40 or so...Either way I'd have to fill my storage space and then make single trips to be worthwhile.
Oh, some essentials on my truck are: one gallon gas can, tire plug kit (had five plugs in same tire before I finally replaced it),
air pump (crappy kind that plugs into lighter), tire iron and jack of course,
A red-shirt and duct tape (to tape on when stuff is 2 ft. outside bed, OR put on if my other shirt gets wet),
Three small straps, one large 27' truck strap (for heavy stuff, two of these for pallets)(It's the only one that'll reach the leaf-springs to hook there for heavy stuff). Well I have a small tool bag with essentials, can't carry more tools than tote-able in a so-so old truck, it's a set-back.
