Damage policy

Your responsibilities when renting with On The Go Trailer Rentals

Responsibility

You're in control of the trailer from the moment you pick it up. Keep it in the condition you received it.

01
Tire damage
Road hazards

Punctures, blowouts, and curb strikes are your responsibility

Improper loading, hitting potholes, and running over debris all cause tire failure. You pay for replacements.

02
Ramp and deck
Structural damage

Bent ramps, cracked decking, and broken hinges happen when loading goes wrong

Overloading, dragging vehicles, and improper angle loading damage the frame and ramps. Repair costs fall to you.

03
Lights and hitch
Connection points

Broken taillights, bent couplers, and damaged hitch receivers stop you cold

Backing up too far, hitting objects, and rough coupling cause these failures. You cover the cost to fix or replace.

Act fast

Report accidents and damage right away

Call or email us the moment something goes wrong. Waiting makes it worse and costs more. We need to know before you return the trailer.

Inspection

We check every trailer before and after your rental

Pre-rental inspection documents the trailer's condition when you pick it up. Post-rental inspection happens when you return it. Any new damage found becomes your responsibility.

Payment

Damage from misuse, negligence, or accidents is on you. Repair and replacement costs are your responsibility.

Tires

Blowouts and punctures from the road are your cost

Hitting potholes, curbs, or debris tears tires. Improper loading puts uneven pressure on sidewalls. You pay for new rubber.

Repairs

Don't fix anything yourself without our approval first

Unauthorized repairs void your rental agreement and create liability issues. Call us before you touch a wrench. We'll tell you what to do.

Cleanliness

Return the trailer clean and free of debris

Sweep out dirt, mud, and loose material before you bring it back. Excessive grime or trash left inside costs you a cleaning fee.
