I've always run a 20 ft enclosed trailer as my main trailer. The biggest thing for me is having everything under cover and not having to unload at the end of the day. Also I can keep all of my spare parts with the mowing trailer and not have to swap it from truck to truck when I run a different truck.

I run open trailers keeps the equipment cooler, i do more landscaping jobs so the versatility of throwing sod,brush,mulch Best thing is when you need two types of materials like mulch and rocks to the same house rocks in the truck mulch on the trailer no delivery fees and no time wasted going back for the secondary materials👍 yes mulch on a trailer is less efficient but on smaller jobs that extra 10-15 mins of shoveling it off the trailer saves you gas ,and a 20-30 mins on another run especially being a solo guy every minute counts unless you want to work later and burn more gas Thats my thoughts Great job brian for making this channel strait to the point and hides nothing great tips and trick

Cargo trailers definitely have pros. I have a 22ft continental cargo trailer I've had for a few years now can hold 3 sit down mowers or 4 with 2 stand ons. Also got it with a wider side door where I can load a pallet of mulch and still have 2 mowers. I use my Lamar dump trailer which I love for heavier or bulky loads. Thanks for the video Brian! #teamscag!

Great video Brian So I only have a 6x12 open utility trailer as we speak. This is my 2nd full time year . So I am sticking with a open for now,but I think in about two more years I will go enclosed. Great points on both. Security, elements and advertising would be the selling points for myself. The bathroom is another feature I have not thought about. Southern pine mowing Texas

Ran an open 14' enclosed and half ton truck for years. The versatility of the open trailer and weight has always been nice. Cons for me: my equipment has definitely taken a toll from the elements and I don't have a place to store the whole trailer away from the elements so always having to unload and have equipment around the house. Secondly some landscape jobs that required me to haul away debris or anything meant unloading that by hand at the dump at the end of the day which was another job on its own. On a 95° day with 90% humidity in GA talk about feeling like dying. So last year I took the leap and purchased a 14k # rated dump trailer. A friend's dad let me store that at his shop but it's outside. I got it for a steal but knew it would open up another can of worms. I can do all the brush work and mulch much more easily with it but now the problem was my half ton. Well I decided to get a 3/4 ton diesel. This has opened up a lot of possibilities for me. So with the dump trailer now my open landscape trailer was basically just hauling mowers around. I also store the diesel truck at the shop so this meant loading mowers onto my open trailer and towing it to the shop with my half ton and then unhooking to get hooked up to the diesel. Talk about a pita. Well I got an enclosed trailer now as I want the rolling billboard, I want the storage, and I want to take advantage of having the heavier duty truck. I got aluminum signs made for my open trailer last year that cost me $900 and they brought in a handful of new accounts. Planning on wrapping my 16' enclosed here soon but $3500 to do a wrap is no joke! I know it's going to pay for itself in the long run but definitely something to consider folks. Plan on selling the open 14' trailer. Only thing that makes me want to keep it is for loading small equipment like mini skid steers or mini excavators. I guess down the road I'll probably get an equipment trailer.

@markjones7444 2 жыл бұрын

I went with a "snowmobile" type enclosed 7.5×24, and it helps to correct a couple downsides to the enclosed trailers...with the v nose and front ramp, you can unload a mower in the front without have to unload every mower in the trailer...also, it has "gas doors" on the sides so you can get the nozzle in and fill up almost as easily as an open trailer.

Here is my take Brian. I have a 2015 Diesel Isuzu NPR now and before this truck, I had a 1999 Diesel Isuzu NPR the I sold to buy my present truck. I have all my equipment secure and don't have to worry about tight spots to maneuver. I can carry a Lazer Z 48" with a bagging system, a 48" Starris, a 36" walk-behind, and a 42" walker mower. I have racks installed for my backpacks blowers, trimmers, chainsaws, etc. Shelves for gas cans, tools. I started with an open trailer about 30 years ago but once I found the box trucks for me was the perfect setup. Hope this helps

Utility trailer, I park mine in my shop so it's out of the elements plus I only do it part time with 14 yards. My first year in 2009 my neighbor gave me a 6x12 single axle trailer for free! He was excited to see a young man running a business. As the years went I thought about an enclosed trailer for storage and was about to go fulltime cutting but the weight, cost and me getting a big promotion at my daily job steered me away and once I started picking up bigger clients I needed a bigger mower and bought a 7x16 tandem utility trailer and love it.

My favorite is an enclosed. When I worked at a larger company we ran enclosed. They just are so much more organized and it's a shop, storage, and restroom on wheels. Plus you cannot beat the advertisement. With my business I'm currently running a utility trailer. Alot easier to get around and cheaper option for beginner companies. But I'd recommend to everyone to work there way up to an enclosed when more established.

I just mow a few family yards each week. I have a 5 by 10 SureTrac open trailer. I have added wooden sides and more tie down points to make it more useful. It holds my 42 inch zero turn and my push mower. My trimmer, blower and other tools go in the back of my truck. I have a flip-bak bed cover that keeps the tools out of site. My mowers take a beating in the rain, but the other tools stay dry. Some times I wish I had an enclosed trailer. I also think that sometimes signage on the trailer attracts thief’s.

In terms of protection from the elements (specifically rain), the thing I was most looking forward to when I went to an enclosed was keeping the rain off the trimmers, blowers, etc . I had problems for years with the air filters getting wet on them...while they were still wet the motors would run terribly, if at all! Once the filter dried, the dirt and oils on the filter would be spread out from the water and make the filter almost unable to get air through it...

I primarily use my enclosed trailer. Keep my blowers and weed eaters on equipment defender racks. And the mowers down the middle, I keep the spare blades, oils, tools, etc in a front cabinet. I do have a "utility" style for those days when I have needs for it. But I use it for so many other things that I can't install racks for my trimmers and blowers, so they usually end up in the truck bed or beside the mowers on those days. My enclosed always ends up being my equipment "garage" though at the end of the day

Don't even need to watch the video, the answer is yes! There are many things that an enclosed trailer is absolutely the best option, and there are many things an open trailer is absolutely the best option. There's a lot of overlap, but both types of trailers have their niche.
