Things may have changed over the years (20+) but for what it is worth here is the experience I had with U-haul.
When I called up the toll free number to reserve a trailer for where I intend to pick it up the price was about 30% higher than the price
I was given when I contacted directly the local U-haul outlet where I wanted to pick up the trailer.
I needed the trailer to haul a 1948 Desoto for a friend (+/-3500 lbs)
I was driving a GMC 1-ton.
Told the guy at U-haul what I wanted the trailer for and he mumbled something about the stupid computer probably won't know what that is but he could fix that.
20 minutes later I was hooked up, lights checked and on the way.
As far as tying it down goes, overkill is always your friend.
I would be more comfortable using 4 chains and 4 boomers for your load.
Bought my own trailer years ago.
Stock reply when someone wants to borrow it is;
It needs a new battery for the break away and shoes on the left side of the front axle, if you want to fix that for me you can borrow it. (Funny no takers yet on the offer)

After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
