How much does the car you are going to transport weigh? If you are going to be using the trailer to haul different types of cars regularly, what do you feel the heaviest vehicle would be? You want to know this information because you need to make sure that you have the right size axles to ensure that the trailer can handle the weight.

Additionally, you will want to consider how many vehicles you will have to transport at one time. There are options for trailers that can hold more than one vehicle, so be sure you are choosing the one that is going to work best for your business or for your personal needs. Does the trailer come with a ramp? If you are going to be driving a vehicle onto the trailer, you will want to make sure that it has a ramp that you can use.

There are a range of different types of car trailers available today. There are some that have wooden bases, and those that have steel plating, and they are available in various configurations that could hold one, two, or more vehicles.

Many of the car trailers are open, meaning that the vehicle that is being hauled is out in the open when it is being transported. There is a risk of damage to the paint or the windows from rocks kicking up on the road, for example. Therefore, if you choose an open car trailer rather than a closed car trailer, you might want to have a cover that you can affix to the vehicle. This is particularly true for those who are going to be transporting a classic vehicle of any type.

Today, there are many car trailer manufacturers including PJ Trailers, Appalachian Trailers, Kaufman Trailers, and Reinhart Trailers.
