How Much Does a Mobile Surveillance Trailer Cost?

Pricing is the first question most people ask — and for good reason. Here’s a straightforward breakdown of what mobile surveillance trailers actually cost to rent or buy, and how that compares to the alternatives.

Surveillance Trailer Rental Cost

Monthly rental rates for solar-powered surveillance trailers typically range from $800 to $2,500 per month, depending on:

At the entry level, a basic HD trailer with remote app viewing runs around $800–$1,200/month. A fully-configured PTZ trailer with motion alerts, cloud recording, and live monitoring typically runs $1,500–$2,500/month.

Surveillance Trailer Purchase Price

Purchasing a mobile surveillance trailer makes sense for operations with long-term or recurring surveillance needs. Purchase prices typically start around $35,000–$50,000 for a fully equipped solar trailer, depending on camera configuration and features.

SiteViewPro also offers lease-to-own financing options that allow you to build toward ownership while keeping monthly costs manageable.
