Default Rent Trailer in one city, return in another

Hi, does any company provide a service where you rent a trailer in one city and return in another. I want to rent a trailer in melbourne and return it in adelaide.

I think you will find all the bigger companies will do this (like Kenards etc), even my Servo has the option of a one way rental..

Try a search in google for "trailer one way rental"

Thanks. Is the price often unreasonable? Maybe its just worth pulling the trailer there and back.

Quite a few of the servo trailer hire places are part of a national chain and do allow for one way but they do charge for the pleasure. Pretty sure I looked at it a while back and it wasnt worth it. Plus I also found out you are restricted to a max of 80 kph towing their trailers, great way to shed any responsibility in the event something happens, who sits on 80k's?
