Would you feel comfortable using someones trailer that you didn't own if you were getting paid to use it?
Requirements are simple. GPS locator on trailer, and all you have to do is use it for whatever you currently use it for.
I am currently doing market research.
Option to purchase the trailer you currently own

I'm going to assume these trailers would have advertising on the sides. Many owner/ops who are leased onto another carrier do not own their trailer so they are already using someone elses. How much are you talking and who covers maintenance? Remember, if you get someone who drives like an idiot, it may have a negative impact.

You seem to be implying that someone is already using the trailer. I dont quite understand the full scenario here. Like the other driver stated, am I using the trailer for some benefit from the provider? Who's paying the registration & physical damage insurance? Who is responsible for maintenance? Is there a written agreement for a locked time frame so the owner operator doesn't find himself or herself suddenly without a trailer? Obviously there would be verbiage for cancellation due to misuse, neglect, etc. I personally have owned my own truck and trailer for 15 years. You would have to be much more clear on the details for me. I would find it interesting to know more. Good luck with the idea.

what he is asking, if you were given a trailer to use for free, in exchange for having advertising down the side and a gps locator to determine where it goes to measure the exposure of the advertising, would you do it? I am assuming flats and steps wouldn't be included,lol

Sounds like a deal to me. Sign me up! Just dont be surprised when you get a call about how rude I drive.

I like to order a 2015 retinour flabed 48 by 102 with a rolling side kit, any ad you want on the sides. let me know when it comes in.
Big_D409 Thanks this. -
I know where there is a new Kentucky auto transport trailer, it would look good all wrapped in someone's logo, I've got several big races coming up with a lot of exposure. I wouldn't have a problem pulling that trailer at all.

I think my stainless spread axle refer loaded with lights would be best!

Money aside; before under going a lease...i need to inspect the unit, maintenance responsibility & lease terms .
