Towing please, give me advice!
Ok, here's my dilemma I'm moving back to new awlins to help out with my dad who has cancer. I'm renting a budget 24' box truck and a hauler trailer from them as well. I am traveling from Humble Texas and I have two vehicles that need to be towed one is a 99 blazer (have to bring it for transportation in NOLA) and the other is a 90 suburban (not running right now needs a fuel pump and starter welding work. Is there any way possible to tow both vehicles like maybe hook a dolly trailer to the CSR hauler type trailer.
I really don't want to make two trips in a few days. Not sure what I can do, does anyone rent long trailers to hook up to the box truck? Many thanks in advance for advice.

No legally you can't tow two trailers like that with a box truck.And trailers that can carry more then one car have a 5th wheel or goose neck hitch and neither of them can be used with a box truck.If the blazer runs have a friend drive it for you and tow the suburban.Or tow the blazer and leave the suburban at a friends house and go get it later on maybe get it running and drive it.

Re: Towing please, give me advice!
Add up the cost of towing the Suburban + the cost of repair + the cost of parking at new place(if any) + the cost of LA registration. Might be cheaper to sell it in TX and buy a running vehicle once you get settled in your new place. Plus it would be one less thing to worry about while you help family.

If you book two weeks in advance, you can fly there for $69 on Spirit Air.
