The Best Landscaping Trailer Setup: Sizes and Features

Spring is here, and a well-equipped landscaping trailer is essential for efficiency and productivity. Whether you're a solo operator or managing a full crew, having the right trailer setup makes every job safer and easier. At TrailersPlus, we offer a wide selection of durable, high-quality trailers designed to handle the demands of landscaping professionals. With over 80 locations nationwide, we provide the largest inventory, industry-leading warranties, and competitive financing options to help you get the trailer you need at the best value.

Choosing the Right GVWR and Size

Choose a trailer with an adequate GVWR to handle what you’re moving, and then consider how much space you require to haul mowers, tools, and supplies without unnecessary limitations. GVWR—the maximum weight a trailer can safely handle—includes both the trailer’s empty weight and the cargo inside. To determine the usable payload capacity, subtract the empty weight of the trailer from the GVWR. Here’s a handful of popular landscaping trailer sizes our customers prefer, available today at TrailersPlus:

• 6x12 Single Axle Utility Trailer – A good option for solo landscapers or startups. This compact trailer easily hauls a mower, trimmer, blower, and other essential tools.
• 6x14 Tandem Axle Utility Trailer – A great mid-size option for small crews. This trailer provides an extra 2’ with room for multiple mowers, handheld tools, and additional storage while maintaining maneuverability.
• 6x10 Interstate Dump Trailer - Built for landscapers who need a compact yet heavy-duty hauling solution, featuring a 10-gauge steel floor and walls for durability when transporting mulch, soil, or debris. With its 9990-lb GVWR and electric brakes on both axles, this trailer handles demanding loads while ensuring safe and controlled towing. The combo gate design allows for both spreading and dumping, making it efficient for unloading gravel, mulch, or other materials at job sites.
• 6x12 Single Axle Enclosed Cargo Trailer – Designed for growing businesses. These sizes accommodate multiple mowers, baggers, and extra tools that can be secured with tie-downs, D-Rings, and E-Track accessories. Many landscaping professionals choose an enclosed trailer for added protection and versatility.
• 7x16 Tandem Axle Enclosed Cargo Trailer — A top choice for established landscaping businesses and contractors who need to transport larger equipment securely. With a higher payload capacity and expanded interior space, this trailer can haul zero-turn mowers, push mowers, backpack blowers, string trimmers, and other tools while keeping them protected from weather and theft.
• 7x16 Tandem Axle Utility Trailer - A heavy-duty option (10K GVWR) built for professional landscapers. Its split ramp gate allows for easy loading and unloading of mowers, wheelbarrows, and heavy equipment, improving efficiency on the job. The tandem axle design enhances stability and weight distribution, making it ideal for hauling mulch, sod, and tools over rough terrain.

Landscaping trailers available at TrailersPlus are built for durability, with reinforced steel frames and high-quality components to withstand daily use.

Key Features of Interstate Enclosed Cargo Trailers for Landscapers

• Weather Protection - Interstate enclosed trailers, available exclusively at TrailersPlus, provide a fully covered and sealed space, ensuring that items like lawnmowers, trimmers, and power tools remain dry and free from rust or weather-related damage. The enclosed design also prevents dust and debris from getting inside, keeping equipment in top condition.
• DuraFrame™ Design for Structural Integrity - The DuraFrame™ design reinforces the trailer’s overall strength, preventing bending or warping under heavy loads. This is particularly beneficial for landscapers who transport bulky or weighty items such as lawn tractors, tree saplings, or bags of fertilizer. The added structural integrity ensures the trailer remains reliable even after years of use.
• No-Leak Warranty for Secure Storage - A no-leak warranty guarantees that the trailer remains waterproof, preventing water damage to tools, fertilizers, and other sensitive materials. Landscapers who store their equipment in the trailer overnight or during off-seasons can trust that their investment is well-protected against moisture, mold, and rust.

Accessories and Upgrades to Streamline Your Efficiency

• Utility Rack - Make hauling your landscaping tools easier and safer. This rack's sturdy steel build and strong clamps keep everything in place and protected while you're traveling. Plus, it's simple to install and helps you maximize your vehicle's space, so you can focus on the job.
• E-Track - Keep your landscaping equipment organized and secure with the versatile E-Track system. Designed to handle heavy loads, E-Track provides multiple anchor points along the trailer walls or floor. Use straps, hooks, and tie-downs to fasten mowers, trimmers, and toolboxes, preventing shifting during transport. Its customizable layout allows you to adjust the setup as your equipment needs change, making it an essential upgrade for efficient, safe hauling.
