Can You Tow With a Enterprise Rental Truck?

The answer is yes and no, depending on the type of vehicle you are renting and the towing needs. Certain types of Enterprise rental vehicles are designed and equipped to handle towing, while others may not be suitable.

The type of vehicle you rent from Enterprise will determine if it can be used for towing.

Enterprise offers a variety of pickup trucks, cargo vans, box trucks and other commercial vehicles that can be used for towing small trailers or equipment. Pickup trucks such as the Ford F-150 and Ram 1500 have powerful engines and come with trailer hitches already installed, allowing them to easily tow most light-duty trailers. Cargo vans like the Ford Transit or Mercedes-Benz Sprinter may also be equipped with hitches for light-duty towing.

For heavier loads or larger trailers, customers may want to consider renting a one-ton flatbed truck from Enterprise Truck Rental. These larger commercial vehicles are designed for heavier jobs such as hauling construction materials or large landscaping equipment. The flatbeds typically come equipped with a fifth wheel hitch and can safely tow trailers up to 16,000 pounds.

When considering renting a vehicle from Enterprise for towing purposes, it is important to keep in mind that some state laws prohibit certain types of vehicles from being used for towing. You should also make sure that your trailer is properly rated for the size and weight of your load before attempting any kind of hauling.

Conclusion:

In conclusion, whether you can tow with an Enterprise rental truck depends on the type of vehicle you rent and your specific needs. Certain types of vehicles such as pickup trucks and cargo vans may be suitable for light-duty jobs such as pulling small trailers, while larger commercial vehicles like one-ton flatbeds can handle heavier loads up to 16,000 pounds. Make sure you check local laws regarding what kind of vehicles are allowed on the road for hauling purposes before renting any vehicle from Enterprise.
