About Renting an Equipment Trailer in Troy

An equipment trailer is built for loads that a lighter trailer can't handle. Its tandem axles, low deck and sturdy ramps let you drive a skid steer, mini excavator, compact track loader or backhoe straight on and off without lifting or winching. Rated capacities typically run from 14,000 to 20,000 pounds or more, and the low deck angle reduces the risk of high-centering heavier machines during loading.

Troy sits in Oakland County, one of the more active construction and commercial development corridors in southeast Michigan, which means demand for equipment trailers runs year-round. Renters here commonly use them to move compact tractors and excavators between job sites, transport non-running or low-clearance vehicles and haul other heavy rolling equipment. Before you load, confirm the trailer's rated capacity covers the machine's full operating weight, not just its listed shipping weight. Check that the deck length fits the equipment's footprint and that the ramp rating handles the load. Secure everything at four points using binder chains and load binders through the D-rings or stake pockets. Heavier loads may require your tow vehicle to have a brake controller.
