Hmm, well I did eventually figure out what to charge. I managed to find a rate from a tow company that was about $700 or so. Some what less than this seems fair.

Thanks for al the input.

You should remember though, the tow truck would not have taken the trailer where it needed to be, and probably would have charged storage if taken to their place of business. Just for future reference.
