Will you have a single or a double? The answer mostly comes down to what you're hauling and how you'll use the trailer.
Single Axle
A single-axle trailer can be a good choice for lighter loads and smaller trailers.
Advantages can include:
- Lower trailer weight
- Lower purchase price
- Fewer tires, hubs and bearings to maintain
- Easy maneuverability
They're commonly found on smaller utility, cargo and specialty trailers.
Tandem Axle
A tandem-axle trailer uses two axles and is generally the better fit as loads, trailer size and required capacity increase.
Depending on the trailer, benefits can include:
- Greater load capacity
- Better stability
- Better load distribution
- More trailer options for heavier equipment and cargo.
