Have the factory tow hitch, but looking to get a uhaul cargo trailer

[Berliner5000]

Hey everyone! I need to move my smoker, some chairs, and some other odds and ends from Sacramento to SF (about 90 miles). My Tesla Model Y has a tow hitch (bought it with the car), what do I need to do to rent a 5x8 or 4x8 trailer from uhaul?

Thanks!

Sorry, first time ever trying to tow something.

You should be good to go. Just check what type of electrical connector the U-Haul has. The U-Haul location should be able to supply an adapter if necessary. They should also help you hook up the trailer ball and chains. Keep an eye on your range (~50% reduction seems standard).

Check the weight of the trailer and contents to ensure they aren't over the weight limit of the hitch.
