Kinda neat to have both options but sounds like a bit of a shore to store upright. Thanks for pointing that out.

The problem with trailers is what to do with them the 99.9% they are not used.
Folding trailers do just that fold. After that you have a tall, wider than expected object that seems to be in front of whatever it it's you need at that moment

IMO it is or it isn't. Fold up small or not at all.

It's just like an RV, great when you use it but you have to find a place to store it. My current method of transporting bikes is in the bed of my pickup and I have a large folding ramp for it but there is a little more risk loading or unloading it due to the sudden angle change at the bottom of the ramp where my feet can't touch if I'm riding the bike. A trailer would be a lot nicer and safer plus you could carry 1-3 bikes on it. Folding is good as I could roll it along side my house for out of the way storage. Maybe one of these days I'll get one.

Thanks for the advice, guys. I had no idea that one could be rented so cheaply. I'll definitely pursue this course of action, as I will hardly ever need it.

Go to Tractor Supply and buy a 5x8 utility trailer with a drop down tail gate. Make sure you buy one with the larger wheels.
You can use it for multiple purposes. Add some chocks and eye bolts where/if needed.
What ever you decide, don`t buy a trailer with small wheels.
Good luck. boo
