Sometimes your car or truck is all you need to haul a small amount of cargo. But sometimes you have larger cargo that simply won’t fit in your commuter vehicle. Maybe your business requires that you bring equipment and tools all over town. Or maybe you frequently need to drop off some junk at the local dump. In situations like these, you’re going to need a trailer! No matter what you need to haul, a utility or cargo trailer can make transporting your load much easier.

Benefits of Ownership

Having a trailer means you can keep the interior of your car or truck free for passengers or other items since you can fit most of your load in your unit. You can also prevent overloading your truck by using your unit instead.

Buying a trailer means you’ll always have access to it. You won’t need to worry about renting a unit the day you need it and paying for frequent rentals. You’ll be able to haul any large cargo at a moment's notice! Found a great couch for sale? Put it in your rig. Friend needs to borrow your lawn mower? Put it in your unit and drive it over to their house. Love antiquing? Bring home all of your hidden treasures safely and securely. Owning a trailer gives you the freedom to carry anything on short notice without putting a strain on your vehicle.

Factors to Consider 

Once you start the shopping process, you’ll want to make sure you have a good idea of what you need from a trailer. Think about the size of your load. If you only plan on hauling small cargo, you won’t need to spend extra money on a longer trailer. On the other hand, if you plan on carrying something long or heavy, you’ll want additional square footage.

Don’t forget to factor in weight too! You’ll need to make sure your car or truck can handle the extra weight of the full unit. Use the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating of your truck to figure out what size unit you can safely haul.
