Choosing the Right Trailer to Rent in Nashville

Nashville towing means rolling hills, busy lake ramps, and spring storms. Run through these before you send a rental request.

  • Size and capacity: match deck length and payload to your biggest item, and leave room to strap it down safely.
  • Weight and brakes: stay within the trailer's rated load and your vehicle's tow rating, and keep tongue weight around 10 to 15 percent of the total. Tennessee requires brakes on all wheels of trailers weighing 3,000 lbs or more, with breakaway brakes.
  • Hitch, chains, and wiring: confirm the ball size (usually 2 inches, or 2-5/16 for heavier trailers), your hitch class, and that the trailer's plug matches your vehicle. Tennessee requires 2 safety chains crossed under the hitch.
  • Plan your parking: Metro Nashville tightened street parking for larger trailers in 2025, so know where the trailer will sit before you pick it up.
  • Ramps and loading: for anything you roll or drive on, check for a ramp gate or low deck height; for tall or awkward loads, check deck width and tie-down points.
  • Open vs. enclosed: open trailers load fast and cost less; enclosed trailers keep band gear, merch, and furniture dry and secure on the road.
  • Get your questions answered: check the listing details first, and ask Toby, the towlos virtual assistant, anything else. After you submit a rental request, you can message the Host in towlos Chat to confirm dimensions, hitch, delivery, and anything specific to your load before they approve it.

Common Reasons to Rent a Trailer in Nashville

Trailer rental in the Nashville area

From tour dates to lake days, horse shows, and race weekends, these are the most common reasons Nashville renters book a trailer, and the type that fits each job.

  • Music and touring. Nashville has a higher concentration of music jobs than any other US metro (study), and bands rent enclosed cargo trailers to haul gear, merch, and backline. CMA Fest each June keeps the whole city moving.
  • Boats and watercraft. Tow a boat, jet ski, or pontoon with a boat or dual-purpose utility trailer. Percy Priest Lake is about 10 miles east of downtown, and Old Hickory, Cheatham, and Center Hill lakes add more Army Corps ramps.
  • Livestock and equestrian. Haul horses and show animals with a horse or stock trailer. The Tennessee Walking Horse National Celebration in Shelbyville runs each late summer, the Wilson County Fair in Lebanon fills its grounds each August, and Tennessee Miller Coliseum in Murfreesboro hosts horse shows with stalls and RV sites on site.
  • Vehicles and motorsports. Move a car, motorcycle, or race car with an open or enclosed car hauler. Nashville Superspeedway in Lebanon hosts NASCAR each June, and the Music City Grand Prix now runs there too.
  • Storm prep and cleanup. Clear limbs and debris after a storm with a dump or utility trailer. Middle Tennessee has seen damaging tornadoes in both March and December in recent years.
  • Moving and big hauls. Wilson County has grown more than 18% since 2020 and Rutherford County more than 13%. Move an apartment, furniture, or a small office with an enclosed or utility trailer.
  • Powersports and off-road. Get ATVs, UTVs, and dirt bikes to the trails with a utility trailer or toy hauler. Windrock Park in Oliver Springs covers 73,000 acres, and Brimstone in Huntsville has more than 300 miles of trails.
  • Construction and heavy equipment. Move skid steers, mini excavators, and building materials with a flatbed, deckover, or gooseneck trailer built for heavy, oversized loads.
  • Vending, events, and mobile business. Concession, display, and cargo trailers turn into food stands, pop-up shops, and mobile workspaces for festivals, markets, and job sites. Food trailers need a Metro Public Health permit, and Metro now limits where they can park on the street.

Do I need additional insurance to rent a trailer?
Requirements vary by owner. Some carry their own coverage; others ask renters to show proof of auto insurance. Check the listing details or message the owner before booking. Towlos Protect+ covers damage to the trailer, but your auto policy may be needed for liability.
What kind of hitch do I need?
Most utility trailers use a standard 2" ball hitch. Car haulers and heavier trailers may require a 2-5/16" ball. Check the listing specs and confirm with the owner that your vehicle's hitch class and tow rating are compatible before booking.
What size trailer do I need for a one-bedroom apartment move?
A 6×10 or 6×12 open utility trailer handles most one-bedroom moves, furniture, boxes, and appliances. If you have bulky items or a large couch, consider a 7×14 or larger. When in doubt, size up, it's easier to have extra space than to make two trips.
Do towlos hosts offer delivery in the Nashville area?
Some do. When searching, look for listings that mention delivery or message the owner directly. Delivery is especially useful if you don't have a truck or hitch set up. Many local hosts are flexible and happy to arrange drop-off for an additional fee.
Can I rent a trailer one-way?
Most towlos rentals are round-trip, you pick up and return the trailer to the same owner. Some owners allow one-way arrangements; contact them directly to ask. If you're relocating, it's worth messaging a few hosts to see who can accommodate.
