Don't buy the wrong trailer.
It happens more often than you'd think. A trailer looks right on the lot, and then it turns out the deck is a foot too short for the skid steer, the payload won't cover the machine plus its attachments, or the truck isn't rated to pull it loaded.
Before you buy, know your numbers:
β
What you're hauling and what it really weighs, including attachments, fuel and gear
β
The trailer's actual payload. A 14K trailer doesn't haul 14,000 lbs, because you have to subtract the trailer's own weight.
β
What your truck is rated to tow and what your hitch can handle
β
The deck length and width you need for the jobs you have now and the ones you'll take on later
β
How you'll load: ramps, dovetail, tilt, or dump
At Wasatch Trailer Sales, we'll ask the right questions and match the trailer to your job and your truck, so it works for you for years and not just on day one.
Stop by or give us a call before you buy. Getting it right the first time costs a lot less than buying twice.
