About Renting an Equipment Trailer in Big Rock

An equipment trailer is built for loads that a lighter trailer cannot safely handle. The low deck reduces the load angle so skid steers, mini excavators, compact track loaders, backhoes and compact tractors drive on under their own power rather than being lifted or winched. Sturdy fold-up or dovetail ramps, tandem axles and a high gross weight rating make it the right tool for moving heavy rolling machinery between job sites in Kane County and the surrounding area, as well as transporting cars, non-running vehicles and other oversized rolling equipment.

Before you hook up and head out, match the trailer's rated capacity to your machine's operating weight, not its shipping or curb weight. Confirm the deck length covers the full equipment footprint and that the ramp rating handles the load at the steepest approach angle. Secure the load at four points using binder chains and load binders attached to the trailer's D-rings or stake pockets. If you are hauling a heavier machine, verify your tow vehicle has a brake controller. Compare equipment trailers listed near Big Rock and reserve the deck length that fits your equipment.
