The trailer scheme can work but one needs to pay attention to the trailer
laws in any states you will travel through. There may be length, width,
and/or weight limitations. States often differ on whether trailer brakes
may be required and at what weight you must have brakes.

Subject: Re: [TowerTalk] Shipping Companies
uship.com is a similar site, but one with many independent folks who may be
doing something like transporting an empty boat trailer between your two
sites. Boat trailers make great tower transport vehicles. The problem with a
long haul on a flat bed trailer is that the trailer is usually shorter than
the tower sections with crank-ups and your lights end up forward of the end
of the trailer, which is a safety and perhaps legal issue.
