If you run a landscaping crew or contracting business in Lehi or American Fork, trailer rental isn't a one-time decision — it's a recurring line item. The trailer that's perfect for a sod delivery is the wrong choice for a demolition debris haul. Here's a practical breakdown of which trailer fits which job.
Match the Trailer to the Job, Not the Other Way Around
Renting "whatever's available" is how crews end up paying enclosed-trailer rates for a job an open utility trailer could have handled, or underestimating payload on a rock or dirt haul. We offer three trailer types, each suited to different parts of a landscaping or contracting workload.
Dump Trailer: Debris, Dirt, and Rock Hauling
For jobs centered on moving bulk material — demolition debris, excavated dirt, gravel, or rock — the 7x14 Dump Trailer 14k is built for the volume and the cleanup speed. At $80/day, with a 9,800 lb payload and hydraulic dump, it's suited to:
- Debris removal from demolition or renovation sites
- Hauling excavated dirt or fill material
- Delivering or removing landscaping rock and gravel
- Construction site cleanup where manual unloading would slow the crew down
The hydraulic dump matters most here — it turns unloading from a 20-minute manual job into a couple of minutes, which adds up fast across multiple loads in a day. For a deeper look at exactly how much material fits within the payload, see our dump trailer payload capacity guide.
Utility Trailer: Mulch, Sod, and Equipment Runs
The 7'x14' Utility Trailer at $40/day (1,945 lb capacity) is the workhorse for lighter, bulkier landscaping loads and equipment moves that don't need weather protection:
- Mulch and sod delivery runs
- Moving mowers, tillers, or other landscaping equipment between job sites
- Transporting ATVs or small utility vehicles used on larger properties
- Light material hauling where an open ramp trailer makes loading and unloading faster
Because the 1,945 lb capacity is lower than the dump trailer, it's best reserved for jobs where volume and weight are moderate — bulk soil or rock hauling should go to the dump trailer instead.
Enclosed Trailer: Tools, Equipment Storage, and Contractor Hauling
For contractors who need to secure tools and equipment overnight, transport them between multiple job sites, or protect materials from weather, the 24ft Enclosed Trailer at $95/day (6,130 lb capacity) is the right fit:
- Lockable storage for power tools and equipment between multi-day jobs
- Weather protection for materials sensitive to rain or dust
- General contractor hauling where cargo needs to stay secure in transit
- Moving larger equipment loads that exceed the utility trailer's capacity but don't need dumping
The Economics of Repeat Rental
If your crew needs a trailer regularly rather than for a single job, weekly and monthly rates change the math significantly compared to renting by the day. For crews running jobs several days a week, week-long or month-long rentals typically cost less per day than repeated daily bookings — worth calculating against your actual job schedule before choosing a rate. See our full published rate breakdown for all three trailers to compare daily, weekly, and monthly pricing side by side.
Since booking runs through instant online reservation rather than phone scheduling, it's also easier to line up rentals around a shifting job calendar without waiting on a callback to confirm a date.
Booking Around a Lehi or American Fork Job Schedule
We're based in Eagle Mountain, UT, with pickup only (no delivery), which puts us within reasonable reach of crews working in Lehi and American Fork. Because booking is available 24/7 online, crews can reserve a trailer the night before a job starts rather than waiting for a call back to confirm equipment is available.
- All trailers are bumper-pull — confirm hitch compatibility on your work truck before booking (2" ball for the utility trailer; 2-5/16" ball for the enclosed and dump trailers)
- No hidden fees, so job costing against rental rates stays predictable
