There are several ways of hauling your ATV when going to the trails that you love so much. There is the conventional trailer that you pull with your truck or SUV. They come in all kinds of designs and sizes that will best fit your ATV and life style.
There is the trailer that has a tilt bed. It weighs over 300 lbs. and can haul over 1500 lbs. It is a multi-purpose design that can be used to carry, not only your ATV, but any other OTV. Remember that the plywood may not be included with your trailer. Ask before you buy.
If you are considering on taking a friend or even better, your spouse, you might want to get a double wide ATV trailer, which comes 6' X 8' instead of the 4' X 8' single. The double ATV trailer can carry two ATV's and will cost somewhere between $200-300 more than the single ATV trailer, which starts at just over $500.
These ATV trailers come in aluminum, steel, and some are even covered. Aluminum ATV trailers are recommended because they are lighter which, with the gas situation it is today, makes them the better choice for better gas mileage. This type of medal does bend more, so keep that in mind when loading and unloading your ATV's.
Steel is a much better choice, as far as wear and tear. It will hold up better, is a stronger metal, but it will rust and should be treated, especially if the trailer will be stored out of doors or will experience a lot of inclimate weather.
The covered trailer, for your ATV, is more expensive, but will provide you with security when you are not around. You will also not have to load and unload them every time you decide to take your ATV's out for some fun. The cost of this type of trailer will cost about the same as what you paid for your ATV.
Now that you know some great choices to make for hauling your ATV, happy hauling!
