1. What is it For?

The first question you should ask yourself as you’re thinking about purchasing a trailer is what it will be used for. There are a lot of trailer options available today, so you’ll want to narrow down your search pretty fast. For example, if the primary purpose of buying a trailer is to move your classic cars, you might want to consider a toy hauler. Other options might include transporting your powersports vehicles, landscaping equipment, or your personal belongings. Our team can help you identify which trailer types would be appropriate for each scenario. 

2. What Kind of Tow Vehicle Do You Have?

The next question you’ll need to answer is what type of tow vehicle you have available. Some trailers will require large trucks to be hauled while other options can be towed with a sedan. It all comes down to the coupling style and the weight capacity of your vehicle. It will be very important to identify these specifications early on in the buying process.

3. What Size Will You Need?

Many times your tow vehicle will directly influence the size of the trailer you can buy, but it’s still important to consider this factor to make sure your intended cargo will fit! When you consider the size of the trailer, you can take height, length, and width into account.
