Commercial Truck Trailers

Get Cargo to Its Destination with Commercial Truck Trailers

Oversized and powerful, commercial truck trailers get the job done when it comes to moving cargo across the city, state, or country. Getting freight to where it needs to be takes a specific type of vehicle, and thats where these trailers come in. Browse eBays wide selection of trailers of all types, ranging in conditions of new to used to certified pre-owned, with many at price points to fit your budget.

As with any other vehicle purchase, youll need to take some factors into consideration as you decide on the right trailer for your needs.

• These heavy-duty trailers come in a variety of lengths. The length you decide on should be based on how much space you need and what type of cargo youre carrying. Some lengths to keep in mind include 10-foot trailers, 15-foot vehicles, or over 20 to 25-foot trailers.
• Opt for a model year that works for you. Companies manufacture these vehicles to last, so when youre on a budget, a pre-owned vehicle with low gas mileage keeps some cash in your pocket. Consider model years that vary from 2005 to 2008 or 2014, depending on the feature set youre looking for, along with the make.
• Think about a make that interests you. Brands like Kenworth, Peterbilt, and Penske are known for their attention to quality and detail when it comes to crafting high-performance trailers for towing cargo.

There isnt just one type of trailer when it comes to purchasing these oversized freight carriers. Consider what youre hauling as you browse your vehicle options.

• Possibly the most common type of trailer is the flatbed trailer. This type comes in handy because you can use it for so many types of things, such as equipment, supplies, lumber, and a variety of other items. Theyre flexible and versatile and come in different lengths to accommodate your needs.
• Carrying perishable goods? Then you will definitely need a refrigerated trailer when youre headed to supermarkets or convenience stores with foods and drinks that need to stay cold.
• Another option for carrying just about any type of freight is a dry van trailer. Think of a dry van as a flatbed thats enclosed, so your shipment stays protected from the elements no matter what type of weather youre driving through. They have ample space, so you can arrange your cargo as you like.

Being on the road for long periods of time is no joke, so you want to ensure your comfort as you drive. Look out for some features that can make long-distance travel a bit less of a hassle.

• A sleeper trailer allows you to grab a quick nap at the next truck stop on those long rides to your destination. This refreshes you and gives you a snug, safe spot to sleep in your vehicle.
• Consider whether you want to unload your freight from the side or the rear, as there are trailers with one or both options.
• Ensure you have what you need to load and unload, such as tarps, cranes, or other equipment, as sometimes a trailer comes with additional supplies.
