Here's my two cents. Id go for the U-hall trailer. Its much lower to the ground thus your ramp angles are much lower = easier on & off loading. This is especially helpful when you have a big (heavy) bike. I did this some time ago when I picked up a 1986 Goldwing (yeah I made a judgement error) as a project bike. Anyway I was able to load and unload by myself. Would never happen if I had tried to get that thing into my truck bed. Ditto on good quality tie-downs and inspect the tie down hooks on the trailer (its a rental) make sure there are no cracks. Always helps to have a bud go with you.

Good Luck!
