Features of a Utility Trailer
Utility trailers in our inventory come with various features, so you can select the model that meets your needs the best. Our team can also help you customize the model you choose if you don’t see one that fits your exact specifications. Learn more about some of the common features you’ll find on our models.
Single or Tandem Axles
The utility models in our inventory come with either a single or tandem axle. Single axles are a good option for those who are doing lighter-weight towing and remain on traditional smooth roadways.
Tandem axles are a good fit for those who intend to do some off-roading or are towing larger loads. The tandem axles give your model more stability while you tow.
High or Low Siding Options
Our standard utility models come with lower siding. This allows for easier loading or unloading of equipment or smaller vehicles like ATVs or UTVs.
If you’re hauling brush or debris, you may want to opt for 24-inch side extensions. These ensure that anything put in your trailer will stay there. Mesh siding is also an option for even more security.
Flooring Options
We offer various flooring options for utility trailers in our inventory, including:
- Metal
- Wood
- Steel
The right flooring option for your unit may depend on what you will be hauling most often. Our experts can recommend a flooring option that fits your needs best.
Sizing Options
Our utility trailers come in a variety of sizing options, including:
- 5-Foot Wide
- 6-Foot-Wide
- 7-Foot Wide
The 5-foot-wide models are some of the smaller models available in our inventory. These models are used frequently for hauling ATVs, lawnmowers, and scooters.
The 6-foot wide units, like our smaller models, are designed for professional and recreational use. Midsized options come with solid siding, high siding, and pipe top additions. These larger models come with room for equipment for a crew of landscapers.
The largest options are 7-feet-wide. Many use these models for larger worker crews or a team of ATV/UTV riders. Tandem and single-axle configurations are available in this size.
Purchase Your Utility Trailer
When you find the utility trailer that you’d like to purchase, our team can help you start the process. We accept a variety of payment methods, including cashier’s checks, credit cards, and a loan from a bank or credit union. We know that some folks buy trailers together, so we also accept co-signers. Our team has extensive experience working with folks across the financial spectrum.
Our dealer has a relationship with two lenders, Sheffield Financial and RockSolid Funding, who can help you secure a loan if that’s the purchase process you want to use. Apply for financing on our website for either lender or do so in person at our dealership.
If purchasing your model immediately isn’t the right option for you, we also offer a rent-to-own program thanks to our partnership with C3 Rentals. You’ll rent your trailer from C3, and some of your rental payments will go toward the purchase of your model. When your unit is completely paid off, the ownership transfers to you.
Utility Trailer Warranties
We are proud of the models we sell and believe in their quality and durability. That’s why all new utility trailers have a 1-year material and workmanship warranty. If you have questions about the warranties available or the unit you’re purchasing, our team is here to help. We can discuss what to expect from the warranty, how it works, and the ways in which your model will be protected.
Trailer Service and Parts
When your utility trailer has been towing for a while, it may need a tune-up to continue to perform safely. Our service center is dedicated to caring for trailers, whether they need routine maintenance or repairs. Our factory-trained and certified technicians know how to service Interstate and Carry-On models in a variety of ways, including:
- Suspension Repair
- Brake Adjustment
- Wheel Bearing Adjustment
A convenient way to keep up with routine maintenance is to bring your unit in for inspection once a year. A certified 40-point inspection gives our team an opportunity to examine every part of your model and determine if there is wear and tear that requires maintenance or repairs. We’ll let you know what we find so you can decide what’s next. Each purchased trailer comes with two free certified inspections.
Trailer Parts
Our service center has a large inventory of trailer parts and accessories available for purchase. We use these parts to repair your unit, although you are welcome to purchase parts if you’re interested in customizing your model. Popular parts we sell include:
- Receivers
- Tongue Boxes
- Spare Tires
A variety of cargo management solutions are also available to help you secure your equipment and cargo. Those using their models professionally may need several options to approach a potential job with flexibility.
We can help you select the right parts for your unit and pass them off to our service team. If you know what parts you need, shop for them online and order. We’ll let you know when they arrive and get started on your model’s customization.
Using Your Utility Trailer
Are you new to using a utility trailer, or would you like to brush up on the basics? Our experts have put together some tips so you can make the most of your model right away.
Make Your Unit a Lawn Trailer or Yard Trailer
One of the most common uses for a utility trailer is yard or lawn work. These versatile units allow you to tow equipment, debris, mulch, or other plants you may need to make a yard look its best.
How to Load Your Utility Trailer
Properly loading your model can help you when you arrive at your destination to unload and when you’re on the road. A correctly loaded model is safer in motion than one that is unbalanced, which can be dangerous when unloading and on the road.
Load your trailer with heavier items toward the front in a 60/40 weight distribution. Secure equipment, products, and whatever else you’re carrying with tie-downs, so they don’t move during travel. Lightweight cargo can be placed on top of heavier items and on the back half of your model.
Tandem-axle models can hold more weight than their single-axle counterparts. If the load is only between 10-15% of the gross towing weight for the tongue of your tandem-axle model, you can center the cargo between the two axles of the trailer. This may be safer and more efficient than the traditional 60/40 distribution for larger loads.
Driving with Your Model
Driving when you’re towing a trailer is a little different from your typical experience behind the wheel. Your model increases the weight you’re carrying, so your vehicle will need more time to bring your car and the trailer to a complete stop. Increase your braking distances and drive more cautiously when you’re towing.
Trailer sway is a factor when driving. This can happen because of the weather, the curve of the roads, and other factors. Follow speed limits and drive defensively. Keep in mind the sway when checking your vehicle’s mirrors.
If you’ve never towed before, practice doing so in a safe environment, such as a parking lot. This can help you prepare for time on the road and help you adjust to how your model moves.
