    1st I wanna say you cant have too many trucks trailers wheelbarrows or buckets

    2nd I wanna say if you only have one trailer it needs to be a 12 to 16 footer utility, a 16 you can haul smaller cars on and as stated above can handle anything within reason

    3rd unless your neighborhood wont allow it or money wont allow, keep all the trailers you can, it will reduce handling material twice

    my favorite specialty trailer now is a pickup truck bed trailer similar to taters, we throw prepared in there, ive got a gmc2500 im going to make another out of when time allows



    anytime I go to a client to buy a car, if I see washers dryers or trailers I ask if they are for sale
