The 20-year-old joined the Sydney Thunder squad at 15 and made her debut in WBBL|04 at just 17-years-old.
Despite her youth, Trenaman was a crucial member of the WBBL|06 title-winning Thunder team, opening the batting for most of the season.
She has played 23 matches in lime green, with a solid strike rate of 96.62 across the three seasons.
Trenaman said she was looking forward to playing with the Hurricanes.
"Given the great things I've heard about the program I'm really excited to be immersing myself in a new environment and am confident of the success we can achieve," she said.
Trenaman also bowls a right-arm leg-break, recording her best figures 2-11 on her tournament debut.
"So far, all my development in cricket has been through the pathway in New South Wales, which is obviously a really strong program, but I'm looking forward to learning how the Hurricanes operate too," Trenaman said.
"Because I have played all my cricket over the last five years in NSW, part of the attraction of making the move is to be working with new minds and different perspectives from both the coaches and the players, so I'm eager to learn and progress my game further."
