Different trailers were designed for different purposes and with different properties that make them ideal for specific uses. Tilt trailers were designed to make loading and unloading heavy cargo easier by tilting the trailer bed back, eliminating the need for a ramp. Tilt trailers are used for transporting all kinds of heavier cargo.
Here are three types of cargo that are best transported by a tilt trailer:
- Construction materials. Most construction materials come in awkward lengths or sizes and are typically heavy. Piping, long pieces of wood, and other construction materials can be hard to load onto a trailer even with the help of a ramp. This is why this type of cargo is typically hauled using a tilt trailer.
- Vehicles. Vehicles are obviously heavy, and trying to load or unload one onto a trailer with just a ramp can be a disaster. Tilt trailers are your best bet for transporting a vehicle because you don’t have to worry about the vehicle slipping off a ramp or bottoming out because the angle of the ramp is too high.
- Heavy household items. There’s no need for trying to lift anything onto the trailer when you utilize a tilt trailer. Loading bulky or heavy household items like furniture or washing machines can be strenuous without the additional help that tilt trailers provide. You don’t want to risk injuring yourself when moving household items during a home renovation project or a move, so use a trailer that will work with you to make the furniture-hauling easier.
