I leased a trailer from Prime leasing (fyi this is not the prime trucking company)
Kind of expensive at $700 a month but these are brand new trailers with no additional mileage rates and no charge on tire/brakes threads upon return.
They will even lease to O/O with 1 truck.
Only requirement is you list them as a policy holder.
Fyi they are based in Grand Rapids, MI so this may not help with your parking situation.
Message me if you need their contact info.

Hey, I don't know your particular financial situation but if you bought a trailer you can use Secure Truck & Trailer Parking Facilities-Nationwide Drop Yard Staging-Long Term Container Storage-US & Canada-Carrier Fleet Services-Terminal Exchange Services to park the trailer. They have tons of locations and hopefully one is near you. I pay about $200 a month to park a trailer there and most of the time you can park the tractor there. However you can't park a personal vehicle there (at least not the one local to me) so driver will need a ride to and from. Your mileage might vary or you might find cheaper alternatives but for the $200 a month I can't complain considering it'd cost me more to lease more lot space.

I think it’s bs too, but businesses don’t limit their business for any which reason other then to protect themselves. Just the way it is.Tombstone69, Rideandrepair and TruckRunner Thank this. -

So I take it you’re looking to occasionally lease, because if long term parking would still be a problem. Wouldn’t it then need to be near home? Or are you looking to lease one for a few mos? Just wondering what the whole plan/ goal is.
