Avoid adding extra mileage to your car by using a tow dolly that can be attached to the back of your rental truck. With a car tow dolly, your front-wheel-drive vehicle’s front wheels are lifted off the ground, allowing it to be towed along safely behind your Budget Truck rental. This option is ideal for front-wheel drive vehicles and keeps them from accumulating extra wear on the road.

- Only 16-foot, 24-foot and 26-foot Budget trucks have the capability to tow with a dolly.
- A tow dolly is not a trailer so it cannot be reversed or backed up.
- Car tow dollies cannot be rented on their own they must be rented along with a Budget truck.
- For all-wheel-drive (AWD) or rear-wheel-drive vehicles, a car carrier or car trailer rental is required instead of a tow dolly.
