With warmer weather upon us, you might be looking to ride some new trails you haven't explored before on your ATV instead of sticking close to home. This will involve hauling your ATV to the location and there are some good ways to haul your ATV that don't involve a lot of extra work on your part.
A tilt-bed trailer is one great way. They generally weigh about 300 lbs. and can haul over 1500 lbs but are usually more than adequate for your needs of getting your ATV to a new riding location.
If you ride with a buddy or a spouse, you might want to get a doublewide ATV trailer, which comes 6' X 8 'instead of the 4' X 8', single. The double ATV trailer can carry two ATVs.
The material used to construct these ATV trailers varies greatly. They come in aluminum, steel, and some are even covered. Aluminum ATV trailers are recommended because they are lighter which, with gas prices as they are presently, makes them the better choice for better gas mileage. This type of metal does bend more, so keep that in mind when loading and unloading your ATV's.
If you want durability, go with a steel trailer. 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 wet and cold weather conditions.
A covered trailer for your ATV is usually the most expensive choice 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.
Now that you know the basics, get yourself an ATV trailer and explore some new riding destinations - happy hauling!
