Default vehicle trailers

Does anyone on the forum know of any nation wide truck/trailer rental dealers/business that have enclosed trailers to rent for hauling a vehicle (naturally a corvette). I am moving from Seattle to Phoenix (Peoria) in August and I would prefer an enclosed rental trailer. I have a pickup to tow it. I have checked with U-Haul, Ryder, Penske, and Budget thay all have open trailers. ANY HELP OUT THERE would be appreciated.

I fit my '68 vert inside a 24' U-Haul truck. Drove the car & truck to a loading ramp (like the kind you see behind old warehouses) backed the truck up and drove the car right in. The floor was wood, so I screwed 2x4 stops behind/in front of the wheels. Drove it from SC to NJ, found another loading ramp and backed it out. I was also able to pack a bunch of stuff inside the truck and inside the car (clothes, etc.).

Here's a link to the truck I used:

Good luck with your move. I don't have any suggestions, but I do appreciate your service tip and Brad will be getting me some new wheels soon. Maybe that zz383 too. Anyway, thanks again.
