About University City, Missouri

University City sits at the heart of St. Louis County, bordered by Clayton to the south and the Delmar Loop connecting to St. Louis proper. Residential renters throughout the Loop area, Olive Boulevard corridor and neighborhoods near Washington University use trailers for apartment moves, yard waste removal and home renovation projects. Commercial contractors working along Interstate 170, Highway 40 and in nearby Clayton's business district rely on equipment rentals for construction sites and material transport. The city's central location provides easy access to both suburban developments in Ladue and Creve Coeur and urban job sites across the St. Louis metro. Big Rentals connects University City renters with local trailer and equipment owners, making it simple to compare options and book the right rental for any project.

Big Rentals FAQs for University City, MO

How does renting from Big Rentals work?
Big Rentals is a marketplace that connects you with local trailer and equipment owners. Search by your city or zip code, compare listings with photos, specs and pricing, then book and pay online. Once checkout is complete, the owner shares pickup details. Pick up the rental, use it for your booking period and return it to the same location when you're done. The whole process runs through one platform — no shopping around or negotiating with multiple shops.
What types of things can I rent in University City?
University City inventory depends on what local owners have listed, but Big Rentals supports the full range of trailer rentals — utility, flatbed, enclosed cargo, dump, car hauler, gooseneck, deckover, tilt deck and roll-off — plus a growing selection of construction and landscaping equipment. Search by your dates to see exactly what's bookable nearby with specs, photos and rates. If nothing matches what you need, submit a quote request and we'll check with local partners.
How long can I rent equipment for?
There's no hard cap on rental duration. Most listings offer daily, weekly and monthly rates, with longer rentals typically priced lower per day. The initial rental period is paid in full at checkout, and any extension needs to be approved and paid before the original return time. If your timeline shifts mid-rental, contact the owner or Big Rentals support as soon as possible to request more time.
What is the Big Rentals damage protection policy?
Eligible rentals booked through Big Rentals include Basic Rental Protection at checkout. This is a damage waiver — not insurance — that can help limit your financial responsibility for certain damage or theft events, with renter liability capped. Before towing a rented trailer, check whether your auto insurance covers liability and towing-related damage claims. For full details on deductibles, exclusions and renter responsibilities, review our FAQ page.
