Vehicle with towbar for rent

Does anyone knows where I can lease vehicle with towbar as I need to tow car trailer and boat trailer........ have tried my usual rental companies I use Avis, Hertz etc but none of them offer the service........

Would be great close to any of the following airports:
Heathrow
Gatwick
Stansted
Manchester

Try commercial hire - van hire companies for example.

Don't know if they do but you can ask.

http://www.shb.co.uk/

These people will definitely be able to help but last time I tried them you had to have your own company insurance. May be different now.

These people do them as well - should have some stuff with a towbar.

Hi Bogi,
This company http://www.4x4hirescotland.co.uk/ has a location not too far from Glasgow airport (probably £10 to £15 in a taxi) and one really close to Edinburgh airport. They have toyota hiluxes, land rovers etc.
Cheers,
Fraser

Been here myself.

Only place I could find was http://www.shb.co.uk/

Everywhere else said a big no no to trailers.

I think they are southampton based but I would have thought that they'll deliver.

4x4 rental at Manchester airport

hi

these have a very good selection of 4x4 with towbars for hire all brand new but if you are towing then it needs to be on your insurance i know as i hired a VW Toureg 3.0 v6 tdi 06 plate for 2 weeks (about £450.00 per week )
i didnt pay Honda did as my CRV was F@@~~~d again

They also have a massive selection from CRV-RAV4-twin cabs Landrovers Landrusiers audis VW Mitsi etc
