About Renting an Equipment Trailer in Fort Lauderdale

An equipment trailer is built for loads that a lighter trailer cannot handle: tandem axles, a high gross weight rating, a low deck that reduces the load angle, and fold-up or dovetail ramps that let you drive machinery straight on without lifting or winching. That combination makes it the right call any time a skid steer, mini excavator, compact track loader, backhoe or compact tractor needs to move between job sites in Broward County.

Fort Lauderdale contractors, landscapers and property developers also use equipment trailers to move non-running vehicles, heavy generators and other rolling equipment across the metro area. Before you hitch up, confirm the trailer's rated capacity against the machine's operating weight (not its shipping weight), check that the deck length covers the full equipment footprint, and verify the ramp rating handles the load. Secure the machine at four points using binder chains and load binders through the trailer's D-rings or stake pockets. Heavier loads will likely require your tow vehicle to have a brake controller. Compare equipment trailers available near Fort Lauderdale and reserve the deck length that fits your equipment.
