Trailers rent /lease business

So a Wabash van is the best quality. At what point is a trailer structurally shot ?
Do they have a shelf-life more or less that you have to start questioning their integrity ?

If you can’t see daylight through the roof or floor and the doors close evenly and the walls are straight what else is there to worry about if it’s not a rusted mess underneath.

 

So your trying to purchase 2 or more trailers and rent them out to Owner Operators? Most rental places I've dealt with charge at least $600 per month to rent a trailer.

 

I'm not trying to burst your bubble but it just seems like a waste of money and maintenance fees. Why don't you take your $32k and put it in the stock market and double your money over night. I made $3000 in 5 minutes back before covid hit and I did it just $1000 so just imagine what $32k can do.

 

I’ve never had a trailer rejected and I’ve got some as old as 2003. They ask for new trailers all the time but if you maintain your trailer and fix it as needed it will work just fine. Not a single time has this ever been an issue.

 

Better risk

By rhe way, many crap rental companies don't have liability insurance but you will need it.

 

Plus they will ask to be 'additionally insured' so they are named right in the policy and first in line to get theirs if there is a total loss.
