Why Choose a Tilt Trailer?

A tilt trailer offers a unique feature - the entire rear section functions as a ramp. The trailer itself tilts down, removing any need for separate loading ramps. This design leads to many benefits, which we discuss below. If you have any questions or want to explore tilt trailers for sale, visit True Value Trailers & Power Equipment. Our dealership is located in Penrose and Florence, Colorado, and we proudly serve those in Pueblo and Colorado Springs as well.

1. You Want A Smoother Loading/Unloading Experience

Tilt trailers offer the perk of a seamless process of getting cargo loaded and unloaded. The rig simply angles downward and becomes the ramp. This streamlined process makes it much easier for the wheels of any vehicles to stay on the ramp and unload without issue.

With other trailer styles, the loading ramp is a separate piece that gets connected to the rig. This opens the door for a vehicle's wheels to slip off when going from the trailer and to the loading ramp. This can create a stressful situation that may even lead to vehicle damage!

2. You Operate In Tight Spaces

Not everyone has the luxury of excessive room for loading and unloading. That's where tilt trailers come in handy. These models require less space since they aren't using an attached ramp. Other trailers require the room for the rig in addition to the room for the loading ramp. If you work in more cramped spaces, a tilt trailer is a good fit.

3. You Want More Storage Space

Trailers that rely on loading ramps have to carry these ramps around. This takes up valuable space that could otherwise be dedicated to cargo. With tilt trailers, you get the most amount of room for hauling items.

4. You Want A Faster Loading Experience

Tilt trailers rely on hydraulics to move the trailer. This keeps the setup process faster and easier than setting up ramps manually. Enjoy reduced setup and tear down time, which can be especially beneficial if you rely on the tilt trailer for work.

5. You Want Reduced Risk Of Injury

The process of setting up ramps does pose a safety risk. Any heavy lifting can result in injury and this applies to carrying heavy ramps. Using a tilt trailer, on the other hand, cuts out this risk and makes the entire process a bit safer.

6. You Want Reduced Risk Of Theft Or Loss

Any extra item can be stolen or lost, including ramps. It's a huge hassle to discover a missing ramp, especially if it happens after you have arrived at the destination! 

Tilt trailers, on the other hand, are one cohesive unit. This makes it harder for parts to get lost or stolen, giving you valuable peace of mind and saving you money on replacement parts.

7. You Want Versatility

Tilt trailers can be used to carry a wide range of cargo. They are often used to transport ATVs, lawn mowers, tool chests, construction materials, and so on. It's not uncommon to spot them at a construction site being used to transport heavy equipment. Whether you need a model for work or for property maintenance, a tilt trailer can come in handy in many different situations.
