Built for lasting performance and versatility, our SP Series trailers are designed to tackle a wide range of hauling demands with ease. Featuring fully welded steel construction, the streamlined design ensures reliable functionality across various tasks. Mesh sides provide secure containment for bulk cargo, debris, and loose materials, reducing the risk of loss during transit and ensuring safe, efficient transport. With 13" tires for added stability and a smoother ride, these trailers deliver the essential versatility you need for any job.
For additional information on this product, please see the Product Documents section for all downloadable user manuals, installation guides, brochures and warranty statements.
- STEEL MESH FLOOR: Lighter than solid wood, this steel mesh floor enhances payload capacity while providing excellent traction. Its open pattern allows loose debris to fall through, making cleanup simple.
- MESH SIDES: Mesh sides provide secure containment for bulk cargo, debris, and loose materials, reducing the risk of loss during transit and ensuring safe, efficient transport.
- VERSATILE GATE DESIGN: The gate serves as a convenient ramp for easy loading and unloading or can fold into the trailer bed to accommodate larger cargo, reducing wind resistance during transport.
- E-Z LUBE AXLE: Designed for convenience, the E-Z Lube axle allows straightforward lubrication bearings without the need for disassembly, ensuring smooth and reliable operation with minimal maintenance.
- STRAIGHT TONGUE: The straight tongue design improves maneuverability in tight spaces and maximizes storage efficiency when the trailer is not in use.

Q: How does it tow a motorcycle
25 days ago2 Answers
- A: For transporting a motorcycle, we recommend an A-Frame wood floor model trailer. While the trailer's overall load capacity may be sufficient for the weight you intend to haul, it is equally important to consider the trailer's tongue weight capacity. Exceeding the tongue weight rating can place excessive stress on the trailer frame and potentially cause damage. Additionally, if the motorcycle's wheelbase does not align with the trailer's support cross members, we recommend using wood runners or a sheet of plywood to help distribute the concentrated weight of each wheel more evenly across the trailer floor. Mesh floors can flex and stretch over time when subjected to concentrated wheel loads, which may lead to premature wear or damage.

Very good quality small trailer.
15 days ago
I have had this trailer for over 15 years. I replaced the lights with LED trailer lights when it was a year old. This is a very good little trailer for the cost. I have used mine for hauling anything from golph carts, to lumber, ready mix concrete, apliances, to yard cleaanup. I have never had a problem with my trailer like this that I bought from Tractor Supply. It is a very well built trailer that will last. Well worth the cost for anyone that wants a small utility trailer. My carry-On Trailer is now worth more used than I paid for it new, because of inflation.

Altered Title
a month ago
Horrible experience purchase the trailer, I went to motor vehicle the following week to register it and I was told that the title was written on and altered on the front. They were not able to accept it and I needed to go back to tractor supply and get the proper title upon going back to tractor supply. I spoke to Carl the manager. He stated this has never happened before and that he or his employee were not responsible for this, he had no idea how to fix the problem and had to call corporate, I asked him when they would have the new title. He said he had no idea. Poor customer service. We now are going to have the hassle of having to return it and get another one. Not so much a phone call back from the manager.
No, I do not recommend this product.

Great little trailer BUT...
a month ago
I purchased this trailer around a month ago to pull a lawn mower I purchased thru TSC, as well. I like the size of the trailer, the versatility, and its perfect for light duty hauling. However, after pulling the trailer two times around 90 miles, when I connect the trailer to my 4 pin truck harness, the lights would work off and on and also blew a fuse to my trucks tail lights. I replaced the fuse, unplugged the trailer harness and now looking into diagnosing the problems with the lights/harness/wiring. I can't speak on the longevity, after a month of ownership, but $1300.00 for defective wiring/harness, isnt sitting well with me. Now, I have to find out who I need to contact, is it covered, or come out more $$ to fix the issue. Cant tow safely during the day and forget about towing at night..
No, I do not recommend this product.
