4 Things to Ask Yourself When Choosing A Cargo Trailer

With so many different models and styles of cargo trailers on today's market, it can be overwhelming to try to find the one that's just right for you. To help you find the perfect cargo trailer for your needs, start by asking yourself the following questions.

1. What do I need it for?

The first thing to consider when shopping around for a cargo trailer is whether or not a particular make, model or style will meet your needs. But before you can determine that, you must determine what your needs are first.

Featured Product - 5 x 8 Single Axle Enclosed Trailer

This month's featured product is our 5 x 8 Single Axle Enclosed Cargo Trailer. This compact yet versatile cargo trailer is part of our Tail Wind Series and is custom built to order in our Elkhart, Indiana facility. Priced at only $2,090 and available with a ton of optional upgrades and equipment, it's not surprising that the 5 x 8 Single Axle Enclosed Trailer is among our most popular models.

Whether you're in need of a way to transport small equipment for your own personal use or for your business, the 5 x 8 Single Axle Enclosed Trailer is sure to exceed your expectations. And when you customize the trailer to suit your individual needs, you'll be sure to have the right trailer with all the features you need - and not have to worry about paying for features you don't!

Buying a cargo trailer? Here are 5 reasons to choose custom.

Why buy a custom cargo trailer? Well, we can think of a few reasons.

1. Why settle for "almost" what you want?

When you purchase a cargo trailer off the lot, you're getting the features and equipment that come with that particular trailer. If you have very specific needs for your cargo trailer, trying to find one on a lot that has the exact specifications you're looking for will be a challenge. You may have to travel to other cities or even other states to find what you need. And if you're going to go to that much trouble, why settle for "almost" what you want, or "good enough," when you can get a custom cargo trailer built to your specifications?

2. Never spent a day sitting on the lot.

Custom cargo trailers are made to order, following the specifications outlined by you, the customer. Once your custom cargo trailer is constructed, you are notified and are invited to come pick it up from the manufacturing facility. Your custom cargo trailer won't spend time sitting around on the lot, being exposed to the elements.

3. Designed to your specific needs.

Many of our customers appreciate our ability to make customizations based on very specific needs for their business. When you work with us, we'll help you design a cargo trailer that will serve your needs and help you achieve your goals.

4. Don't pay for features you don't need.

Buying a cargo trailer is a fairly large investment, especially if you're buying it for your business. Why spend precious resources on equipment and features you don't need? When you choose custom, you can pick the equipment and special features you want and leave out what you don't.

5. Support American-made products.

Custom cargo trailers from The Trailer Showroom are constructed in the USA. We have several manufacturing facilities throughout the country, from McGregor, Texas to Independence, Oregon to Douglas, Georgia - and we're growing every day! When you buy from us, you're supporting American-made business and local jobs in these communities. With many other companies, the cargo trailers are mass-produced overseas and simply sold in American lots.

Open vs. Enclosed Trailers - What are the Benefits?

When it comes to finding the right cargo trailer, would an enclosed trailer work best for your needs? Or does an open deck trailer make more sense? In today's post, we'll review the basic pros and cons of each to help you make an informed decision.

Enclosed Trailers - Higher Cost, Higher Value?

In general, people assume that because something costs more, it must mean it's more valuable. Well, that's certainly true in many cases. But it's not always that simple. Value is relative. Features that one person finds valuable, another person may not care about. In regard to enclosed cargo trailers, the value lies in the following main benefits:

• Additional storage/more versatile space
• Equipment and other items can be securely left in the trailer, eliminating the need to frequently load/unload
• Can double as sleeping quarters/living space for customers who travel with their cargo (race car owners are usually big fans of enclosed trailers for this reason, among others)
