Your truck needs
- Tow rating of at least 7,000 lb loadedMost half-ton pickups and many mid-size SUVs with a factory tow package qualify. Wind drag matters more than weight, so plan on highway speeds under 65 mph.
- 2-5/16 in ball on a Class III or IV mount
- Electric brake controllerRequired. Factory integrated or a plug-in unit both work.
- 7-way round plug
The trailer is 8 ft 6 in wide at the fenders and about 9 ft tall. Check your garage door, drive-through, and parking garage clearances before you go.
Enclosed trailer questions
Before you load it
Can I leave it loaded at my house or job site?
Yes. Lock the ramp door, the side door, and the coupler lock we give you. Weekly rentals for job-site storage are common, and you can drop it, unhook, and leave it parked.
Is a 7 × 14 big enough for my move?
A full 7 × 14 holds roughly a one- to two-bedroom apartment: a sofa, queen bed, dresser, table and chairs, and about 30 boxes. Larger houses usually take two trips or a second day.
Does it have a ramp or a barn door?
A spring-assist ramp door. Appliance dollies, motorcycles, and mowers roll straight in. The ramp is rated for 2,500 lb.
Can I haul hazardous materials?
No fuel cans, propane, or chemicals inside the box other than what is in the tank of a vehicle you are hauling. Everything else that fits and stays under the payload is fine.
