    in desperate need to lease/rent a flatbed trailer anyone knows where to look?

    I have bad credit. Maybe I can find a co-signor.

    I'm looking for a 48ft or 53ft flatbed trailer. Aluminum preferable but a combo will work too.

    Please help if you know.

    Thanks a big bunch

    no, I was going to a long time ago but I was able to buy one instead. Well I think you gotta do what you gotta do. I wasn't crazy about paying someone to rent a flat bed and not building equity in it but I wanted to get to work and take care of my family. Theres a few guys that advertise IIRC $1100 a month rent for a flat which I think Is nuts. I know down here in Houston a few guys rent them out at $500 a month and you take care of maint.

    come to think of it there was a leasing co that advertised lease to own and credit wasn't an issue.. check craiglist

    Excelerate is supposed to be in the trailer business now. Doesn't check credit. Just give him some money down, make your payments, and everyone is happy. Out of the Indianapolis area.

    Didn't see them on their website, but give them a call. http://www.exceleratetrucks.com/mobile/mdefault.aspx

    1100 a month?

    wtf

    I thought 700 for a 3-4 axel step deck was overpriced on a month to month rent in Houston. For 1100, I want a 4 axel RGN with a lift axel and even that is paying non credit prices.
