Getting back in the Game

My best gooseneck trailer floor for scrap is 3/4 pressed metal (some call catwalk) and the front 8 ft. pressure treated lumber. It is an old stock trailer that I cut down and created a (tub) scrap trailer. The front wood portion is for prepared metal or anything that will fall out of the pressed metal portion. The reason for two different floors was to allow water, snow, and dirt to drain and limit shoveling. For a small trailer that is being discussed I would consider using buckets and tubs for small items and use pressed metal.



I built a 20 ft. trailer for my son to haul his side by side and other toys or vehicles if need be with the axles from a stock trailer. The entire floor is pressed metal because it is strong, light weight, and he can elevate the tongue in storage to eliminate snow and ice build up. The only thing he dislikes is the dust kicked up from the gravel roads.
