All About Utility Trailers

For heavy cargo that your truck just can’t handle by itself, you should consider buying a utility trailer. These durable, open-bed trailers come in several styles with differing weight capacities so that you can find one to suit your needs. Whether you’re using a utility trailer for personal home projects or as a means of carrying cargo and supplies at work, you’ll find that it makes a world of difference compared to the limited capacity of a truck alone.

 

Defining Utility Trailers

Utility trailers are open flatbed trailers that may have low side walls or no walls at all, and a length of 16’ or less. Their openness means that any cargo carried will be exposed to the elements, so bear that in mind. The rear gate allows for the loading up of equipment and other cargo, and this gate may be higher than the walls to prevent anything from falling off the back.

A typical utility trailer doesn’t have a front axle. Instead, the bed of the trailer rests on either one or two sets of wheels that are positioned further back or in the middle of the trailer. This means that the trailer relies on the hitch point for balance. Hitching styles include fifth wheel couplings and triangular bumper-pull frames. The type of hitch you get will depend on the towing vehicle you have, as fifth wheel couplings can only be used in a truck with a bed. 

 

How To Use Utility Trailers

You can make use of a utility trailer in many different ways, whether you use it for work or for personal projects. 

  • Utility trailers can haul vehicles of varying types, although you’ll want to check weight capacities for the particular model you’re interested in, as well as the weight capacity of your towing vehicle.

  • If you enjoy going to flea markets or antiquing, a utility trailer can be a convenient way to get your purchases home safely.

  • Making a run to the dump? Your utility trailer will hold everything you need to get rid of and help you safely transport it there.

  • When moving houses, the utility trailer can serve to haul boxes and furniture across town, saving you from renting a truck that has to be returned at a specific time.

Now that you have some knowledge under your belt, you can make a more informed decision on the best utility trailer for your needs and budget!
