About Renting an Equipment Trailer in Afton

An equipment trailer is built for loads that a lighter trailer cannot handle. A 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 winched or lifted. Fold-up, slide-in or dovetail ramps keep the process straightforward, and tandem axles with high gross weight ratings give you the capacity to move serious iron between job sites in Greene County and across the greater Tri-Cities region. Renters also use equipment trailers to move cars, non-running vehicles and other heavy rolling equipment when a standard trailer simply is not rated for the job.

Before you pick up a trailer, match its rated weight capacity to the machine's operating weight, not its curb or shipping weight. Confirm the deck length covers the full footprint of your equipment and that the ramp rating handles the load. Secure the machine at four points using binder chains and load binders on the trailer's D-rings or stake pockets. Heavier loads may require a brake controller on the tow vehicle.
