Car hauler trailer or car dolly??
« on: July 16, 2012, 01:07:23 am »
Does anyone in the Club or on this forum have a car hauler trailer or a car dolly to move a Fiero on that I could borrow or rent for a day to move a Fiero from Atlanta area to my home in Tamassee SC.  Its about a 2 hour drive each way.

Harry, if you can't find one from a private individual, I've rented them from U-Haul.  They're about +/-$50 for a 24 hour rental.  Only problem is that if you tell them you're towing a Fiero, they won't rent to you.  I've always told them I was towing an 88 Cavalier or Corsica or a 93 Grand Am. 

If anyone down here has one, maybe I could pick it up, get your car and bring it to you.  It would save you making a trip down and back for the car and another round trip to return the dolly.

2.    The few who learn by observation.
3.    The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence and find out for themselves.    Will Rogers

All their equipment is available for one way rental, but sometimes the charges are higher, depending upon the availability of that item at the point of origin.  You can usually rent a one way truck from Florida to the snow belt cheaper than you can rent it from the snow belt to Florida, because they have to pay someone to bring the truck back up north.  More folks move south than north.
