Cargo Trailer

[fajitatone]

Need to move a bunch of crap across the country then store it temporarily in the trailer on private property. Looking at HaulMark, WellsCargo, LOOK, PACE for brands. I need a good tandem axle, with brakes, and 14'-16' long. New or used. Any opinions on the brands etc? What to look for besides the usual thick flooring, C-Channel floor joists, 3/8" sheathing?

Thanks. Fire away!!!

Search out the manufacturers. I have been looking lately and there are several different brands manufacturing facilities in southern GA. You can get a pretty good deal if you pick up from the factory.

yeah, PACE and Bendron, but i'll eat the "savings" in fuel driving up and back.

Exterior skin thickness make sure you get 30 thousands not 24 thousands
Make sure you get 16 on center walls not 24 get a light exterior color. Dark makes it a mini oven inside roof vent for natural light inside when not hooked up to a power source and for fumes . And try to find a brand that uses dexter axles w ez lube axles, and torsion suspension if you put a lot of road miles on it
