About Renting an Equipment Trailer in Chattanooga

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 roll on under their own power rather than getting lifted or winched. Tandem axles and a high gross weight rating spread the load, and fold-up or dovetail ramps give you a clean drive-on surface at the job site. Hamilton County contractors, landscapers and equipment owners rely on this kind of trailer to move heavy rolling machinery between sites across the Chattanooga metro and into the surrounding Tennessee Valley.

Before you pick up a trailer, confirm the rated weight capacity exceeds the machine's operating weight (not just its shipping or curb weight), that the deck length covers the full equipment footprint, and that the ramp rating can handle the load concentration at the point of contact. Secure the load at four points using binder chains and load binders through the trailer's D-rings or stake pockets. Heavy loads often require the tow vehicle to have a brake controller. Compare equipment trailers listed near Chattanooga and reserve the deck length that fits your equipment.
