Utility trailer rental

A utility trailer is a smaller open trailer, usually with low sides, for general hauling.

Typical jobsite uses

• Smaller amounts of materials, landscaping supplies and tools.
• Moving walk-behind equipment and light machinery.

What to confirm with the supplier

The trailer a supplier actually offers is what decides whether it suits your job. What this page says is general, not the specification of any trailer, so check the offered unit against the list below before you choose.

• Deck or box dimensions, measured against what you plan to load.
• Payload, and whether it suits the heaviest load you expect to carry.
• How things go on and off (ramps, doors, a gate or a tilting deck), and whether that suits your equipment.
• The hitch and coupler size, and whether the vehicle that will move it is rated to tow it loaded.
• The brake and lighting connections, and whether they match that vehicle.
• The side height, and whether there is a rear gate or ramp.
