HORSE TRAILERS
Horse Trailers
What Differentiates Horse Trailers?
Horse trailers are vehicles used for the transportation of horses, especially when the animals have to make it from the stables to race events, rodeo shows, fairs, or else for veterinary visits or when being moved from one place to another.
The horse trailer is available from numerous dealers and companies that specialize in its design and manufacture. Vehicles are also traded in resale markets, or from peer to peer.
Usually in aluminum, these trailers used to be in steel. However, the lightweight and other maintenance-free properties of this metal have made aluminum more popular, to the point where it has become the prime material for building the horse trailer. Often, the exterior is painted, with customized designs or decorative strips representative of a dealer brand or in the colors flagged by the owner.
Horse trailers are available in two types. Bumper pull trailers need to be pulled by a heavy vehicle. SUVs are proving very popular for this task lately. Gooseneck trailers need to be attached to the bed of a truck. Between these two distinctions, numerous models and variations can be found. Another differentiation comes in the loading position, in straight load or slant load, where the door is on the side. The straight load trailer opens at the back.
Trailers are usually equipped with a tack room and sometimes a dressing room inside. In gooseneck trailers, the neck often provides storage space. Trailers’ sizes vary between carrying from 2 to 10 horses. Stalls vary between 36 to 42 inches, equipped with stall dividers. This feature is especially prone to be found in slant load trailers. Telescopic dividers can also be found in some models to delineate areas. The floor is often in reinforced aluminum, and the roof is often white, to ward off heat. The sides of the trailer can be extruded, depending on design.
Other customizable features can be added to standard horse trailers. In certain cases, a fully customized trailer can be ordered and built to the client’s specifications.
