ADVANTAGES OF SEMI-TRAILER EQUIPMENT RENTAL

Single-Rate Billing

Whether you select the weekly or monthly billing cycle, we pro-rate down to the day—you only pay for what you use. Other semi-trailer equipment suppliers only pro-rate down to the week.

Semi-trailer equipment rental programs allow you to ramp up for seasonal/peak demand.

In the unlikely event that your semi-trailer is down for extensive mechanical work, Star can provide a substitute trailer based upon customer need and current availability.

Our rental programs allow customers to “flex up” or “flex down” with regard to their seasonal semi-trailer equipment rental needs.

Substitute Trailer Program

In the unlikely event that your trailer is down for extensive mechanical work, Star can provide a substitute trailer based upon customer need and current availability.
