U-Haul trailer when you need it?

Essentially what I've been doing. HD rental truck. But truck availability and requiring multiple round trips to return and pick up my car means I put it off until I'm blocked, and then needlessly stock up on sheet goods that I might need in the future, but ultimately sit around for a year or two before I use them.

But yeah, this is what I'm doing while I bide my time for truck prices to drop. And I've push back a bunch of projects that rely on ply because I just don't want to deal with the hassle.

To your point, I bet the trailers are probably more readily available. The trucks themselves are very hit or miss in my experience. But there always seems to be trailers in the lot.

At that point, you might as well just rent a pickup.
