Trailer Rentals?

I'm looking for a Utility / Flatdeck trailer to haul Tin Roofing from Harrisonburg, VA to Chesapeake, VA (4 Hour drive). The load is expected to be about 8,000 pounds. The longer the trailer, the better. Does anyone know of a dealer who rents trailers out?

You'll know the area better than most around here...

If google doesn't help you might be SOL. Trailer dealers don't generally rent out trailers, they are in the business to sell them.

The only other place I'd suggest to try is an equipment rental place (small backhoes, excavators, bobcats, etc...) They might have trailers for customers who don't. However, around here they only load customer supplied trailers.

another thing to try might be uShip - The Online Shipping Marketplace - Ship Freight, Furniture, Vehicles or Moves
