First, decide if you'd prefer open or closed. In NC, exposure to the elements shouldn't be a problem. I purchased an open trailer. How much weight will you be pulling? East Texas climate is comparable to yours. If you go open, I suggest heavy duty pipe framing, as opposed to angle iron.
Tandem axel trailers usually come from the factory with only one of the axels braking. I ordered both of them with brakes. (Better to have it and not need it, than to need it and not have it.)
Make sure you get one with enough floor space to accomidate all your equipment. You may choose not to carry everything you have, but on occasion, you might. Same idea as above. Mine is 16 ft long. I have the machine, a 525 gal tank, with enough room in front to carry everything else. (See pics in photo album thread, titled "My new rig".)
By the way, the extra brake axel was only an additional $170.00. I feel it was worth it. Altogether, with TTL, it was $1576.00.
Hope all that helps. you. Take care, and good luck.

Dunlap,

Are you looking for enclosed or open trailer?

Single or dual axel? With or without water tank?

I would go with a 16 foot tandem axle trailer with the drop down back door. the ramp is convenient. i have worked out of everything and the enclosed is the safest and most secure.

I have a 325 gal. tank and I would like to be able to keep all the equipment in the trailer so I think an enclosed would be best. I am not looking to spend $3,000.00 on a trailer right now. Can I find them cheaper?

Hey,

There is guy on Ebay that sells and delivers dual axle landscape trailers. He also delievers from florida to maine. A 12 x 6 tandem was about $1500. A 16' is slightly more. You would need to request dual brakes though. Do an advanced search on ebay and sort by location of new jersey and you should be able to find him. good luck.
